The Manchester United striker Marcus Rashford passed a doctor in Barcelona before his loan move.
The 27 -year -old arrived in Catalonia on Sunday evening after obtaining permission from United to complete the formalities of a move.
England International was welcomed by the Barcelona manager Hansi Flick and the sports director Deco on the training field on Monday morning.
The talks between Barcelona and United have made it quickly in the last week, with an agreement agreed in principle during the weekend.
Barcelona agreed to cover Rashford wages for the duration of its loan throughout the season after accepting a 25%salary cut, saving a United to approximately £ 14 million.
The agreement, which is for 12 months, includes an option for purchase for £ 30.3 million (35 million euros).
Rashford will be presented to the media on Wednesday.
Joining in Barcelona has been Rashford’s favorite option since he declared in December that he was ready for a new challenge after being abandoned by the head of the United Ruben Amorim coach.
The move will be Rashford’s second consecutive loan spell after a six -month period with Aston Villa in the second half of last season.
Barcelona hopes that Rashford’s move will be completed in time to join the pre-stuagional tour of Japan and South Korea on Thursday.
The Spanish club has a job to do to record Rashford’s competition for La Liga. However, unregistered players can train with the team and play in non -competitive games.
If Rashford were to join the tour, he could come across the former teammate United Jesse Lingard.
Lingard, 32, is in his second season with the team of the K League FC Soul, who faces Barcelona on July 31st.
Another of Rashford’s former teammates, Monaco’s midfielder Paul Pogba, said to YouTuber Ishowspeed: “I am happy for him because they (United) took his number.
“Manchester United is losing a great player. Unfortunate for them. It’s fantastic for Barcelona.
‘It is not exactly his fault (Amorim). If he doesn’t believe in someone … he has to win. If it won’t win, they will fire him. “
