Former Manchester United star Juan Mata still has hope that Marcus Rashford can have a future with the club, saying it is win-win for the forward and the Red Devils to find a solution. Rashford looks set to leave Old Trafford this summer after spending the second half of last season on loan at Aston Villa.

The justification for this shift in stance—less than six weeks ago, Deco explicitly named Rashford as a player Barcelona “liked”—is the preference for Liverpool forward Luis Díaz. The Colombia international is deemed to be more versatile, more experienced and more willing to sacrifice himself for the good of the team than Rashford.
