Chelsea v Manchester United - The Emirates FA Cup Final — An explosive winger who could replace Neymar at the Camp Nou

Manchester United superstar, Marcus Rashford, is one of the incredible youngsters that could achieve great success at Barcelona. After breaking into United's first team in 2016, the 20-year-old has calmly established himself as one of the most impressive prodigies in the Premier League with his incredible performances for the Manchester outfit.

Rashford is a decent winger with amazing pace and incredible dribbling skills. Whether he is running down the left flank to create chances for his teammates to score or approaching the box at a fantastic speed, the attacker proves to be a real nightmare for opposition defenders to contain.

The 20-year-old is also a decent finisher and a very creative player, capable of bringing out the best out of the likes of Lionel Messi and Luis Suarez at the Camp Nou. The youngster is highly talented and confident on the ball.

Rashford could beat off the competition from Ousmane Dembele and finally help the Blaugrana return to their traditional 3-man attacking system.
