Manchester United's interim manager, Michael Carrick, has stated that no decision has been made regarding Marcus Rashford's return to the team. The 28-year-old forward is currently on loan at Barcelona, with a £26m option to buy clause in his contract.
However, there are reports that Barcelona are hesitant to make the deal permanent at that price. When asked about the possibility of Rashford playing for United again, Carrick did not rule it out. 'There are decisions to be made in time on certain things. Marcus is in that situation,' he said.
Rashford has had a successful spell at Barcelona, scoring 12 goals and assisting 13 in 43 appearances, but has recently come under scrutiny for his performance. Manchester United is confident that they can receive a higher fee for Rashford from another club if Barcelona decides not to exercise the option to buy. The club is also exploring other options to strengthen their left-wing, with RB Leipzig forward Yan Diomande and Everton's Iliman Ndiaye being considered as potential targets. Carrick revealed that there have been conversations about recruitment, but no concrete decisions have been made yet.
