In a recent interview, Marcus Rashford discussed the player he considers to be the most overlooked at Barcelona.
Marcus Rashford, Barcelona’s new signing, made an impressive debut during the summer training camp and scored his first goal for the Catalan club. He also made his official debut for Barcelona, coming off the bench in the La Liga match against Mallorca.
However, after a long period without regular play, it’s understandable that the English striker might lack confidence and sharpness on the field. Nevertheless, with the guidance and experience of coach Hansi Flick, who is renowned for bringing out the best in his players, Rashford may only need a little more time to regain top form and become a reliable option for Barcelona this season.
In a recent interview with SPORT, Rashford had the chance to share his opinions about his teammates at Barcelona. When asked which player he felt was most underrated by the media and fans, Rashford did not hesitate to choose Frenkie de Jong, the Dutch midfielder for Barcelona. “It’s tough, everyone is very talented,” Rashford said. “But based on what he brings to the team, I think it’s Frenkie.”
When asked about the most gifted player he has ever played with, Rashford praised Lamine Yamal, Barcelona’s promising young star. “Lamine,” Rashford replied, showing his admiration for the 10-year-old Spanish talent. Yamal has been shining with impressive performances this season and is considered one of the brightest young stars in La Liga.
Continuing the conversation, Rashford was also asked about the funniest and best-dressed players at Barcelona. He shared interesting backstage stories, choosing Gavi as the funniest, and also said Jules Kounde is the best-dressed on the team. “Gavi,” Rashford laughed and revealed. “Kounde, maybe,” he added about the French defender known for his stylish fashion sense.
Finally, Rashford was asked about his biggest dream—whether he wishes to win the UEFA Champions League with Barcelona or the World Cup with England. Rashford answered without hesitation: “Both are my dreams.” This response highlights Rashford’s ambition and commitment to his career at both club and national team levels.
