The player arrives at the Camp Nou on loan, but with a purchase option that would be around 35 million euros.

The winger has been courting the Catalan club all summer and finally, the Blaugrana took the definitive step, where he will wear the number 14 shirt

It is the third addition of the summer after Joan Garcia, for whom they paid the release clause of 25 million plus Roony Bardghji, who has not yet decided whether to stay in the first team, reserve team or go out on loan, and now Rashford.

Strengthening the left flank was the big objective of the market for Barcelona, in order to have more alternatives with Raphinha

After Nico Williams refused to sign for Barcelona for the second summer in a row, when everything seemed tied up and closed, the Catalan club put two names on the table: Luis Diaz and Rashford

Liverpool, however, demanded high financial terms and United accepted a loan with an option to buy.

In addition, the English player was eager to wear the Blaugrana shirt. He spent the whole summer making eyes at the Catalan club, whether it was through social networks openly saying that he wished he could play alongside Lamine Yamal.

Rashford, who did not join the United squad on their return to work as he waited to resolve his future, is now a Barcelona player.

On tour

Barcelona and Manchester United reached a definitive agreement on Saturday and on Sunday both entities exchanged documents, which were finally signed this morning

Therefore, Rashford will travel to the tour of Asia. He will be part of the Blaugrana expedition on Thursday, which is expected to be made up of 26 players.

At 27 years of age, the winger is embarking on his first adventure away from the Premier League. After a lifetime at Manchester United, he was loaned to Aston Villa last winter, with a 40 million purchase option that the English club ultimately did not execute

Last season, between the two teams, he took part in a total of 41 games and scored 11 goals. Now he is starting a new chapter at Barcelona, and the Catalan club is closing one of the most urgent folders it had in this summer window.
