MARCUS Rashford continued his impressive start as a Barcelona player by scoring twice in their 6-1 demolition of Olympiakos last night.

- BY FELIX KEITH

Rashford joined Barca on loan from Manchester United in the summer transfer window and has settled into Hansi Flick's side.

The England star was frozen out at United, demoted from the first team and forced to train with the other unwanted players in the bomb squad by Ruben Amorim.

Rashford was the first of those exiled players to escape Old Trafford, getting his wish by joining Barca until the end of the 2025/26 season.

He was extremely excited to be moving to the Catalan giants and has exceeded expectations, with some believing he would merely be a backup player.

But two goals in the Champions League against Olympiakos means he now has an impressive tally of five goals and five assists across 12 games in all competitions this season.
