He said: &#8220;Raphinha played very well but he had a problem at the end of the first half and we had to substitute him. His muscles were a little bit of a concern so they will assess him tomorrow.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Since returning from injury, Raphinha has started eight of Barcelona&#8217;s last nine games, with Rashford&#8217;s playing time significantly reduced. The 28-year-old, who is on season-long loan from Manchester United, has played just 28 minutes in Barcelona&#8217;s last four games.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Rashford started the two matches that Raphinha was absent from, and is likely to return to the squad if he is injured. Rashford&#8217;s role is likely to change as Barcelona have four big games ahead of them after the international break.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>This could come at a perfect time as he looks to secure a starting spot for England on the left side of Thomas Tuchel&#8217;s first eleven. His position within the team is expected to become clearer in the upcoming match against Uruguay and friendly match against Japan.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>The Catalan club have been keeping an eye on his performances this season and hope to trigger the \u00a326m buy-out clause included in his loan deal. However, there are indications that they are actively trying to negotiate lower rates.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>According to ESPN, United are certainly in a good position, with clubs from across the Premier League and Europe showing interest in his services.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Rashford&#8217;s return to Old Trafford has not been ruled out, and United are in an advantageous position either way. They could bring back players nearing the peak of their careers or sell them to the highest bidder this summer.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>A final decision on his future is expected to be made after the World Cup, and Rashford will be fully focused on that after a strong season. Barcelona currently lead La Liga with a four-point lead over Real Madrid and will advance to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, where they will face Atletico Madrid.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<p>Hansi Flick&#8217;s side have already played two matches against domestic opponents this season, with Atletico winning 4-3 on aggregate. Rashford came on as a striker during Bar\u00e7a&#8217;s second-leg win, and his adaptability has earned him more minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/sport\/football\/2187598\/marcus-rashford-barcelona-man-utd\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After the game, manager Carlo Ancelotti admitted as much as the Brazilian manager explained why he was sent off midway through the interval.
