Rashford wears number 14 shirt at new club. |
The England star's expected debut for his new club was unexpectedly postponed due to a "serious breach of contract" by the organizers of a friendly match in Japan, forcing Barcelona to cancel their match against Vissel Kobe this weekend.
In a statement, Barcelona said they regret not being able to travel to Japan as originally planned, and expressed disappointment at the impact this incident will have on fans in the land of the rising sun. The club also said they are considering adjusting their summer tour schedule, with two matches in South Korea against FC Seoul and Daegu FC, if the conditions for organizing it are guaranteed.
The incident is an opportunity for Rashford to have more time to get acquainted with his new teammates. The 27-year-old striker will wear the number 14 shirt at Barcelona during his loan period and is expected to make a big contribution under new coach Hansi Flick. Speaking at his introductory press conference, Rashford expressed his excitement at joining the Catalan team and was particularly impressed with the young prodigy Lamine Yamal.
“He is a special talent. Last season, Yamal was one of the best players in the world . I am very excited to join him and the other talented players here," Rashford shared.
Rashford's deal is designed to be flexible, with Barcelona covering the full cost of the deal and a £26m option to buy. For Manchester United, it is a temporary solution to ease the pressure on their wage bill.
