Lamine Yamal and Marcus Rashford are already forming a bond at Barcelona, with the teenage sensation emulating the Manchester United loanee's iconic goal celebration during a training session. Rashford's move to the Spanish champions was the culmination of a long-term effort behind the scenes as the England international had been eager to leave Old Trafford following a breakdown in his relationship with Ruben Amorim.
Marcus Rashford's loan move to Barcelona came after months of behind-the-scenes communication, including regular messages to Lamine Yamal. The Manchester United forward had made it clear he wanted to leave Old Trafford this summer, and the Catalan club were always his first choice. The 27-year-old even took a pay cut to secure the deal and did not ask for guarantees regarding his registration.
Adil Rami has tried to explain his shocking comments about Barcelona and Spain star Lamine Yamal, claiming his outburst was misunderstood and not meant as a personal insult. The former France defender sparked outrage with a foul-mouthed rant about the teenager, which he now says was a poorly phrased metaphor aimed at Yamal's behaviour, not his family.
