These deals include the transfer of the remaining 50 percent of Francisco Trincao's rights to Sporting CP for 11 million euros, which he will join for the first time in 2022, and Jules Kounde's new contract, which spreads the amortization payments of his 55 million euro transfer fee over three years.
Rashford was included in the away squad for the club's LaLiga opener and could make his league debut for the Blaugrana at Estadi Mallorca Son Moix. Rashford is known to have waived 15 percent of his ยฃ315,000-a-week salary to transfer to Barcelona.
