Teddy Sheringham predicts Marcus Rashford will play for Barcelona next season and thinks the Manchester United forward ‘didn’t deserve’ his ‘unbelievable’ move.
Rashford completed his dream move to Barcelona last summer as United approved a second loan for the 28-year-old winger.
Rashford’s effect has thrilled Nou Camp managers, who have seen the England international score 11 goals and assist nine times.

Rashford made almost 400 appearances for his hometown club Manchester United, but fell out of favour under former manager Ruben Amorim.
After spending the second half of last season on loan at Aston Villa, Rashford joined Barcelona in the summer.
Sheringham believes Rashford’s form did not deserve a move to the Nou Camp, but that he will earn a permanent move to Barcelona after performing ‘very well’ this season.
When asked if Rashford may return to Old Trafford this summer after the manager change, Sheringham told BestBettingSites ‘I don’t think it’s about the managers – it’s more about what Marcus wants to accomplish.
‘He’s moved to Barcelona, and for me, it’s a fantastic move; he didn’t deserve it, but he’s gone there and changed his mindset. Barcelona appears to be interested in signing him, thus they will most likely do so.
In His Worlds?
‘That would make it plain that he does not want to return to United, thus he will most likely get his way.
‘I haven’t seen much Spanish football, but when he came to Newcastle earlier this season, in the group stage, he lit the house up. He scored two rockets that night and made a significant impression.
‘He’s done extremely well there, and if they want to sign him, he’s obviously performing very well for them and their hierarchy, so that’s definitely where he’ll end up.’
Rashford’s previous Manchester United manager Amorim was ousted in January and Michael Carrick has been in command of the side since then as caretaker boss.
The Red Devils stalled under Amorim, but have improved dramatically under Carrick, advancing to third place in the Premier League, just six points behind Manchester City.
‘I’m extremely delighted with Marcus,’ Flick stated. ‘He has demonstrated his ability and scored a crucial goal.
‘I can’t talk about his future; we have to concentrate on the games till the end of the season.’
Barcelona will play Atletico again on Wednesday night in the opening leg of their Champions League quarterfinal.
Rashford’s parent club Manchester United last played on March 20 and will return to action on Monday night against Leeds United.
