Marcus Rashford, the Manchester United winger on loan to Barcelona, is experiencing his best season in the UEFA Champions League, according to a report by the Spanish newspaper "Mundo Deportivo." The English winger has contributed to 7 of the 18 goals scored by the Catalan team, following his decisive pass to Lewandowski in the match against Slavia Prague. This surpasses his 2020/2021 season with Manchester United, where he scored 6 goals and provided only one assist.

Since the beginning of the group stage, Rashford has become a key element in Barcelona's attack, although he has recently started appearing as a substitute rather than a starter.

Rashford scored two goals in his first European match this season against Newcastle United, leading the team to victory and earning the title of Player of the Round. He also scored two goals against Olympiacos and forced the opposing team into a penalty, marking one of his standout performances this season.

His role was not limited to scoring only; he also played an active part in playmaking, providing crucial assists against Paris Saint-Germain, Eintracht Frankfurt, and most recently against Slavia Prague, reflecting his ability to consistently influence the course of matches.

Despite these impressive statistics, Rashford has only started in two of the last six matches so far in 2026.
