Marcus Rashford officially launched Barca on Wednesday night on a loan from MU. But what makes the Red Devils anger is not the deal, but the reaction of Alejandro Garnacho.
Immediately after Barca announced the borrowed contract until the end of June 2026 with a 30.3 million pound purchase clause, Rashford posted an article thanks and sharing feelings on Instagram. In the comment section, Garnacho left a brief line of “Let's Gooooo” with two military -style greetings. Two simple words, but enough to make the Man United fan community “hot face”.
Many fans believe that Garnacho's actions are disrespectful to the club, especially when Rashford leaves in a conflicting situation with coach Ruben Amorim and was once considered a “immutable” element in the dressing room.
Remember, Garnacho used to be one of the players who were pushed into the “Bomb Squad” by Amorim with Rashford, Antony, Sancho and Malacia – the names were eliminated from the Portuguese coach's plan due to attitude or performance.
Rashford, even though it is a product of the Man United Academy and has been a symbol of the team, has lost its position at Old Trafford since the middle of the 2024/25 season. After being eliminated from the Manchester derby in December, he was no longer used and pushed to Aston Villa on loan. Despite the bad time and was called back to England, it did not help him save the future in Man United.
Even the number 10 shirt was deprived, and Rashford had to practice alone in the second half of last season. Finally, Barca jumped into the deal and accepted to pay the entire salary (reduced by 25%) with the terms of binding: If they did not buy it, they would have to pay 5 million euros, similar to the situation Jadon Sancho had met with Chelsea.
Garnacho's reaction, in that sensitive context, is considered implicitly showing agreement with Rashford and can increase internal cracks in Man United, where Amorim is trying to reset the new discipline and structure.
The fact that Garnacho, a player who still belongs to the club payroll, shows the public inspiration before his former teammate left to wear a potential opponent in Europe, which will surely make the Board of Directors and fans of the Red Devils disappointed.
