Marcus Rashford in Barcelona to complete loan move from Manchester United
MADRID (AP) — Barcelona's already impressive front line is about to be boosted by the signing of Marcus Rashford. Rashford is in Barcelona to complete a move from Manchester United, a person with knowledge of the transfer told The Associated Press on Monday. The person did not want to be named because they were not authorized to speak about it publicly. The loan deal would give the 27-year-old England forward, once considered among Europe's top talents, a chance to revive a career that stalled in recent years after falling out of favor at United and ending last season on loan at Aston Villa. Spanish media said the one-year loan agreement with United would give Barcelona an option to buy Rashford for about 30 million euros ($35 million). Barcelona had the best attack in Spanish soccer and one of the most prolific across Europe last season, but had been trying to add another piece to the frontline to go along with young star Lamine Yamal, Raphinha and veteran Robert Lewandowski. Rashford has spent his entire career at United, scoring 138 goals in 429 appearances and winning five major trophies, including two FA Cups and the Europa League. But he struggled to consistently live up to the hype that surrounded him when he burst onto the scene as a teenager in 2016 - only managing 20 goals or more in three seasons. In his last two seasons at United he scored a combined 15 goals and added another four in 17 games on loan at Villa. Barcelona won the Spanish league title with 102 goals, 24 more than runner-up Real Madrid. The Catalan club also led the Champions League in goals with 43, five more than champion Paris Saint-Germain, before being eliminated by Inter Milan in the semifinals. ___ AP soccer:

Former England star Gascoigne recovering after collapse at home
Paul Gascoigne is recovering in hospital after the former Tottenham and England star collapsed at his home. Gascoigne was rushed to hospital by his driver and assistant Steve Foster, who found the 58-year-old in a semi-conscious state in his Dorset house. "Paul is in hospital, which is the best possible place for him to be right now," Foster told The Sun newspaper. Gascoigne was reportedly admitted to an intensive care ward after being discovered on Friday, but later moved to an acute medical unit, where his condition is said to be stable. Foster said Gascoigne would "like to thank everyone for the support he's received so far from so many old friends who wish him well and want to see him back to his best." One of the most naturally gifted footballers of his generation, Gascoigne played for Newcastle, Tottenham, Lazio, Rangers, Middlesbrough and Everton. He was capped 57 times by England, becoming a global star after his brilliant form at the 1990 World Cup in Italy reached a tearful crescendo with his emotional reaction to a yellow card, which would have ruled him out of the final, in a last four loss against West Germany. Gascoigne also starred for England during their run to the Euro 96 semi-finals, where they again lost to Germany on penalties. The midfielder's issues with alcohol addiction and depression are well-documented and he has suffered a series of health problems in recent years. In 2020, Gascoigne said he had turned his life around after having anti-alcohol pellets sewn into his stomach. But last year, he admitted on the High Performance podcast that he was a "sad drunk" living in a spare room at the home of his agent. smg/lp

Romano: Liverpool monitor Lyon talent amid growing Bayern interest
Liverpool Consider Fofana as Bayern Step Up Diaz Pursuit Bayern prepare renewed bid for Liverpool forward Liverpool may be preparing for one of the more significant turning points of their transfer window. According to Fabrizio Romano, Bayern Munich are set to submit a new and 'important proposal' for Luis Diaz, with the Colombian winger open to the move. Photo: IMAGO 'For Luis Diaz we're about to enter into important days,' Romano explained. 'Bayern are expected to bid again for Luis Diaz, I expect their new proposal to be an important proposal to try and tempt Liverpool.' The Bundesliga champions are reportedly keen to finalise the deal quickly if Liverpool open the door to a sale. While no official price tag has been set, it is understood that Liverpool would expect a substantial fee to part with their number seven, especially given his impact last season. Fofana emerges as a potential replacement Should Diaz depart, Liverpool have identified Malick Fofana of Lyon as a possible replacement. Though still raw, the Belgian winger is viewed as a player with significant upside, and one who fits the profile of recent Liverpool signings, technically proficient, versatile, and capable of rapid development. 'Fofana can be a plan B for Bayern, but can also be an interesting option eventually for Liverpool in case the deal for Luis Diaz goes through,' Romano added. Photo: IMAGO The 19-year-old would not be a direct like-for-like replacement but could offer Slot an exciting development project while giving Liverpool flexibility in the wide areas. Decision hinges on Liverpool's valuation While Diaz's willingness to leave has been noted, Liverpool remain in control of the situation. There is no release clause and no pressure to sell unless Bayern's offer reaches a valuation that aligns with their internal benchmarks. Photo: IMAGO Negotiations are expected to intensify in the coming days as the German club look to accelerate talks and secure one of their key attacking targets before the window's final stages. Our View – Anfield Index Analysis This situation is beginning to look too familiar. A key player, under contract and still contributing at a high level, potentially sacrificed late in the window in exchange for financial balancing. The club have strengthened well this summer, but offloading Luis Diaz at this stage could unravel much of that progress. Diaz may not be flawless, but he is often the spark in tight games, the player who drags the team forward when others stall. To replace that with a 19-year-old from Ligue 1, however talented, feels speculative at best. If Malick Fofana is the contingency plan, it is a risk that borders on short-sightedness. Supporters have seen this before. Selling players to Europe's elite with vague promises of replacements, only for the squad to suffer months down the line. The timing is problematic, too. Letting Diaz go deep into the window limits negotiating strength for a replacement and throws Slot's pre-season planning into uncertainty. If Liverpool are serious about challenging on multiple fronts again, they need to act like a club not just building for the future, but fighting to keep its present intact.
