Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is a summer transfer target for Barcelona, according to a report.

Manchester United forward Marcus Rashford is reportedly a summer transfer target for Barcelona as the Spanish champions look for a long-term Luis Suarez replacement.

Suarez has scored 21 times in 39 appearances for his club during the 2018-19 season, but the Uruguay international will be 33 in the early stages of next year.

A new centre-forward is believed to be a priority for Barca in this summer's transfer window, although it is understood that Atletico Madrid's Antoine Griezmann is not under consideration.

According to Mundo Deportivo, Rashford is on the list, though, with the Spanish champions keen to explore the possibility of signing the 21-year-old at the end of the 2018-19 campaign.

Rashford is yet to sign a new long-term contract with United, but the Red Devils have the option to extend the England international's deal until the summer of 2021.

This season, the attacker has scored 12 times and registered nine assists in 38 appearances in all competitions for the 20-time English champions.
