Former Barcelona president Joan Gaspart has boldly claimed that Marcus Rashford is a better player than Nico Williams, in response to criticism of the club from the Athletic Club winger's brother Inaki.

Raphinha has fired a bold welcome to Marcus Rashford at Barcelona, delivering a no-nonsense warning to the Manchester United loanee about the cutthroat battle for spots in the squad.

Manchester United fans dreaming of a marquee striker signing this summer can breathe a little easier. Contrary to popular belief, funding a blockbuster deal doesn't necessarily hinge on offloading players deemed surplus to requirements - the so-called 'bomb squad'.
A clever combination of factors is opening up financial possibilities for Erik ten Hag. Primarily, the club's recent financial performance has been stronger than anticipated, boosting available funds. Furthermore, a shift in Financial Fair Play (FFP) regulations allows for greater amortization of player contracts, meaning United can spread the cost of a new signing over a longer period.
This doesn't mean spending will be unlimited, but it significantly eases the pressure to generate revenue through sales. While departures would still be welcomed to streamline the squad, they are no longer a *requirement* to bring in a top-tier goalscorer. Expect United to explore options like Victor Osimhen and Harry Kane with renewed confidence, focusing on structuring a deal that fits within their evolving financial landscape. This is a game-changer for Ten Hag's rebuild!
