Frenkie de Jong says that Marcus Rashford deserves to stay at Barcelona after playing his part in the team’s title success.
Rashford has scored 14 times and grabbed 11 assists for Hansi Flick’s side after moving to the club on loan from Manchester United.
Asked if Rashford deserves to stay, De Jong offered up the following response.
“Yes I think so. In the minutes he’s played, he’s given us a lot: goals, assists, attacking runs. He’s a fast player who poses a real threat to opposing defenses. I’d be delighted if he stays with us,” he told Sport.
“I saw him arrive full of enthusiasm. He was very happy to be here, and from the first moment, it was clear he wanted to stay. He’s tried to adapt as best he can, and I’ve seen him doing well.”
Barca are reportedly hoping to keep hold of Rashford but it remains to be seen if they can agree a deal with Manchester United
