Interim manager Michael Carrick has no plans to recall Rashford from his season-long loan at Barcelona, even after the 28-year-old's 10 goals in 34 appearances and recent starts in La Liga. United, focusing on a squad rebuild after selling Garnacho and loaning out Sancho, lost interest following Rashford's fallout with ex-coach Ruben Amorim last preseason. Barcelona holds a £26 million buy option tied to their March 15 presidential election, while Rashford—contracted at United until 2028—reportedly sees a Premier League return as a step backward, per unconfirmed sources.

Key Takeaway

Marcus Rashford has found his scoring touch at Barcelona, but back at Old Trafford, no one is dialing his number for a return.
