Frontman Rashford has of course spent the season to date plying his trade on loan with Hansi Flick’s squad.
And though the overall level of his performances have at times been questioned, the 28-year-old’s numbers, in a rotational role, have been more than solid.
All told, Rashford has racked up 25 direct goal contributions across 43 appearances.
Such production, though, has not yet proven sufficient to guarantee the Manchester United man’s continuity for next season.
Whilst the Camp Nou brass have not yet ruled out making a permanent move for Rashford, they are also considering a number of alternative options.

As per a report from Mundo Deportivo, this shortlist of winger targets includes all of the following:
Jan Virgili (Mallorca), VÃctor Muñoz (Osasuna), Abde Ezzalzouli (Real Betis), and Andreas Schjelderup (Benfica).
In the case of the latter, Deco and co. have already gone as far as to make contact over the terms of a potential deal.
