Will Marcus Rashford ever play for Manchester United again?

Marcus Rashford has scored six goals in all competitions and provided five assists.

But there are storm clouds looming, with Barcelona trailing rivals Real Madrid by five points in La Liga.

Hansi Flick’s Barcelona future under question

According to Spanish outlet ABC, Barcelona manager Hansi Flick is considering stepping down as manager at the end of the season.

Flick is claimed to feel ‘very tired’ of managing the club and is ready to walk away if his disillusionment continues.

And with Barcelona trailing rivals Real Madrid, there is always the possibility that the decision is taken out of his hands.

Flick has been Barcelona coach since 2024. He was slammed this week for his tactics by pundit Thierry Henry and Ruud Gullit after a 3-3 draw with Club Brugge.

The coach has been very supportive of Marcus Rashford since he signed him on loan, expressing his excitement at the way the Manchester United loanee has made an immediate impact.

Hansi Flick on Marcus Rashford

“He can play on this level and I am happy he shows it, for the fans and for the club, and also for the teammates he is a very important player.”

Marcus Rashford’s changing managers

Marcus Rashford is happy at Barcelona, with life on the pitch and off the pitch. He would be keen to stay and sign on a permanent basis.

But what would happen if Hansi Flick leaves? Rashford would be plunged into more uncertainty.

And his future will likely depend on the appointment of a new boss. It will not only be whether the new coach likes Rashford, it will be whether he would simply prefer to spend his budget on another player instead.

At this stage the concerns are all theoretical.

However, Marcus Rashford knows all about how fortunes and playing styles can change with the appointment of new managers.

During his time at Manchester United, Rashford has played under Louis van Gaal, Jose Mourinho, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, Ralf Rangnick, Erik ten Hag, and Ruben Amorim.

In football, there is no such thing as a safe job. And at Barcelona, the pressure is intense just like at United.
