For his part, Rashford has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/sport\/football\/articles\/c30vq2pppqno\" class=\"ssrcss-k8mrr8-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\">said he would like to stay<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;It&#8217;s a new language of football,&#8221; said Rashford. &#8220;I&#8217;ve always been, like many people in the world, an admirer of Spanish football.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;To play for the biggest club in Spain is a huge honour. I&#8217;m looking forward to playing more games here, just doing my best and try to help the team to win.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">Rashford&#8217;s performance in Tuesday&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/sport\/football\/live\/cdd5z41vlrgt\" class=\"ssrcss-k8mrr8-InlineLink e1kn3p7n0\">2-1 Champions League win over Eintracht Frankfurt<\/a>, in which he came off the bench and provided an assist for Jules Kounde, brought praise from the Spanish media. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">And with Barca  four points clear of Real Madrid at the top of La Liga after securing five league wins in a row, Rashford&#8217;s aim for the rest of the season is &#8220;simply just to win&#8221;. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;It&#8217;s a club that demands this,&#8221; he said. <\/p>\n<p class=\"ssrcss-1q0x1qg-Paragraph e1jhz7w10\">&#8220;The environment is always pushing us to be the best players we can be so it&#8217;s perfect to be in a place like this as a player.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/sport\/football\/articles\/cwyln8xxx80o?at_medium=RSS&#038;at_campaign=rss\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rashford, who revealed Barcelona were his &#8220;favourite club outside of England&#8221; as a child, said he is taking time to immerse himself fully in the lifestyle while living in the Spanish city.
