A Nou start: Tarnished United star arrives in Barcelona

LONDON — Marcus Rashford is the boyhood Manchester United fan who lived his dream until a precipitous fall from grace ended his love affair with the club.

The England winger on Wednesday joined Spanish champion Barcelona on loan in a deal that includes a purchase option, signaling a likely final exit from Old Trafford.

Rashford appears to have secured the move he hankered after, but there will be no hiding place at the Catalan giant.
