Barcelona has the option to buy out Rashford for £26 million. After the deal was finalized, Rashford was able to go with the team to Asia for the preseason tour. He made his debut in a 3-1 victory over Kobe Victory Ship, but encountered an experience that is widely regarded as the "bigest shame" in football.

The 27-year-old player came on as a substitute in the half and was replaced after only 30 minutes. When asked about the decision to replace Rashford, Barcelona coach Hans Flick explained: "Rashford didn't play much before, and we also want to give Gerald Martin 15 minutes because he needs a chance to play after he recovered from injury." On Thursday, Rashford made another substitute in a 6-3 victory over FC Seoul; when he faced Daegu FC on Monday, he finally won his first goal in his career. Rashford came on as a substitute again, replacing Robert Lewandowski in half, scoring with Eric Garcia's cross. Before the game, Rashford talked about the goals of the new season: "The pre-season preparation was very smooth, and we were ready for the new season. I integrated well and was adapting to the system of the team and coaches."

"There are many excellent players here, I knew before I came. The team's level and intensity are very high, which is also the state we need to maintain throughout the season."

When asked if there was a goal, Rashford responded: "The more, the better. I know that in another country, playing in a different football style. I think there will be changes, but I accept this challenge and will try to score as many goals as possible. "

Due to Barcelona's financial problems, Rashford has not completed the registration for La Liga this season, but the England international said he is not worried: "I don't worry about registration."

"I think this is a problem that the club needs to solve, and I believe it will be done. I focus on training and prepare for the start of the new season." Before transferring to Barcelona, Rashford was one of the five members of Manchester United's "bomb group" and the only player to leave the team. Alejandro Garnacho, Jaden Sancho, Anthony and Tyril Maracia are also excluded from the lineup and are expected to leave this summer.
