Hansi Flick is reportedly considering moving Marcus Rashford to the No. 9 role to keep the new signing in Barcelona’s XI once Raphinha returns from injury.
Rashford has been a constant bright spot for Barcelona amid their recent woes. The England international created the Catalans’ lone goal in their 2–1 loss to Paris Saint-Germain and bagged his team’s only goal in their 4–1 loss to Sevilla four days later.
In fact, Rashford has been involved in all three of Barcelona’s Champions League goals so far this season, and already has seven goal contributions to his name in 10 appearances with the Spanish outfit.
Yet once Flick has both Lamine Yamal and Raphinha back at his disposal, there will not be a place for the 27-year-old on either wing. Instead of reducing Rashford to a substitute role, report the German boss is toying with the idea of playing the former Manchester United man at striker.
