Barca fans welcome Rashford with awesome mural – how does it compare to others?

BARCELONA supporters have gone absolutely Diego Maradona for Marcus Rashford after unleashing a jaw-dropping mural for their new signing.

The incredible artwork on the streets of Catalonia has the England star, 27, pulling off his trademark 'temple point' celebration while sliding on his knees.

It's an epic welcoming message for Rash as he nears his stunning loan switch to the club.

Barcelona have agreed in principle to a season-long loan covering his entire £325,000-a-week wage and have a £26million option to buy next summer if all goes to plan.

Rashford touched down in Barcelona over the weekend to undergo a medical and his unveiling is expected on Wednesday.

The mural comes as a loud and clear message that Barca fans are excited for their new star to make his debut.

Deals for first-choice targets Nico Williams and Luis Diaz fell through but Hansi Flick backed Rashford as the perfect Plan C pick.

Despite his turbulent season at United, Rashford has reportedly accepted a significant pay cut although Barca will still foot the full original bill.

It marks a huge moment as Rashford will become the first Englishman at the Camp Nou since Gary Lineker.

Manchester United legend Mark Hughes also played there but he is Welsh, so that leaves Rashford with huge boots to fill.

Flick sees him as vital depth on the left, plugging a gap in Barca’s attack and competing with the likes of Raphinha and Lamine Yamal.

There’s optimism the move could spark the career revival Rashford so desperately needs and if he impresses, the £26m buy‑option will likely be triggered.

He's also looking to return to the England team and play at next year's World Cup, so his motivatyion is very high.

And his iconic mural welcome would certainly make him feel at home.

But how does Rashford's mural compare to some that have been made for other players in the past?
