🚨 Rooney on Barcelona delaying on Marcus Rashford deal:
“If I’m Marcus, honestly, I’d find the whole situation disrespectful. And a little embarrassing too. Because you cannot convince me a club is almost ready to throw close to €100M at Gordon but suddenly starts calculating pennies when it comes to Rashford. That alone already tells you where their real priority is.
From the outside looking in, it doesn’t even feel like they’re trying to make him feel important. And for a player of Rashford’s level and profile, that matters. Personally, for my dignity, I don’t care how big the club is, I’d either go back to Manchester United and force my way back into the team…or move somewhere else where I’m genuinely wanted immediately.
Because imagine scoring an incredible free kick against Real Madrid and the club still doesn’t react with: ‘Yeah, pay United now before somebody else moves first.’ That should tell you everything. At some point players also need to protect their own pride.”
