Barcelona squad have already made their feelings clear on Marcus Rashford after his first training session with them

Marcus Rashford has made an instant impression on the Barcelona squad following his first training session.

Rashford has joined Barca from Manchester United on a season-long loan.

The Catalan giants will cover the entirety of the star forward's wages after he agreed to take a pay cut and they have the option to make the transfer a permanent deal for £30 million in 2026.

Rashford has gone through his paces in training following his switch but he will have to wait to make his debut after the club cancelled their scheduled pre-season game against Vissel Kobe on Sunday due to a 'serious breach of contract'.

He will be looking to make his Barca bow next Thursday when they face FC Seoul.

Ahead of potentially making his first appearance for his new team, the 27-year-old has already impressed his new teammates, having wowed the coaching staff.

According to reporter Alex Pintanel, Rashford has been described as a 'beast' within the dressing room after taking part in his first training session at Barca.

On X, Pintanel revealed: "In the locker room, they say he’s like a 'beast'."

Rashford spent the second half of last season on loan at Aston Villa and showed glimpses of his ability, having starred against Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.

He will be hoping to resurrect his career in Spain and he's excited to get things started.

"I'm very excited," the England international told the club's YouTube channel. "It's a club where people's dreams come true, they win big prizes.

"What the club stands for means a lot for me. I feel like I'm at home and a big factor in my choice to come here is because it is a family place and a good place for good players to showcase their skills."

Rashford added: "Another factor is because the conversations I had with [Hansi Flick] were positive. What he did last season was terrific. To lead such a young team to a very successful season and come back to pre-season and still want to do more, it shows me everything I thought I knew about the club and it's everything I wished.

"I'm eager to learn the Barcelona way."
