Barcelona seeks guarantee for Marcus Rashford
Barcelona Set to Unveil New Signings for First Game of the Season
Barcelona is gearing up for their first game of the season against RCD Mallorca, scheduled for Saturday night at 19:30 CEST. The club is confident that new signing Joan Garcia will be available for the match. Additionally, Barcelona is working diligently to have Manchester United loanee Marcus Rashford ready to join the squad.
La Liga has granted approval for Marc-Andre ter Stegen’s injury report, categorizing it as a long-term absence. This designation allows Barcelona to utilize the injury rule and register Garcia, utilizing some of his salary limit space. With Robert Lewandowski sidelined due to injury for the first game, securing Rashford’s availability has become a top priority for the Blaugrana.
Barcelona Utilizes €7m Board Guarantee for Registration
Recent reports suggest that Barcelona may tap into a €7m guarantee approved by their board to facilitate the registration of Marcus Rashford. Originally, the club had planned to resort to this measure only as a last resort if registration issues persisted until the end of the transfer window. However, Lewandowski’s confirmed absence has expedited the need for a swift resolution.
Approval Pending for Barcelona’s €100m VIP Seats Deal
Barcelona is eagerly awaiting approval from auditors Crowe for their €100m VIP seats lease. Once greenlit, this deal would pave the way for the registration of Rashford and other players awaiting clearance, including Roony Bardghji, Gerard Martin, Wojciech Szczesny, and Marc Bernal.
Amidst the registration process, Hector Fort is anticipated to depart, relegating his spot in the squad to a lower priority. Bernal’s return is not expected for several weeks, making way for Martin, Szczesny, and Bardghji to follow suit. The duration of ter Stegen’s absence remains uncertain, with varying reports on the recovery timeline.
