Lamine Yamal Drops Major Hint About Barcelona's Mystery Signing Through Cryptic Social Media Post

Barcelona are said to be just hours away from unveiling Marcus Rashford as their newest summer signing, with the English forward already being seen in Barcelona.

Rashford is set to strengthen Barcelona's offensive options for the upcoming campaign, and Lamine Yamal was among the first squad members to acknowledge the England star before his formal presentation to the club.

The ex-Manchester United striker shared images on social platforms showing him aboard an aircraft—likely during his trip to Barcelona. While numerous fans commented on his post, one response particularly caught attention. Barcelona's current No. 10 ensured he left a message to start welcoming his new colleague.

Barcelona's pursuit of Rashford was helped by indications that the forward was solely focused on joining the Spanish giants. One major factor behind Rashford's patience in waiting for Barça may have been the opportunity to team up with Yamal, a talent he has previously commended publicly.

"Absolutely, without question," Rashford responded when recently questioned about wanting to partner with Yamal. "Everyone globally desires to play alongside the elite. So, we'll see what happens."

"It's challenging to describe what he [Yamal] is accomplishing because someone his age shouldn't be performing at this level at 16, 17. I believe we haven't witnessed anything like this before."

Following extensive rumors, Rashford will realize his ambition of sharing the field with Yamal. All signs suggest the young star is equally excited about Rashford's signing, and Barcelona will be hoping this duo, along with their other forwards, can create a devastating partnership that brings additional trophies in 2025–26.

With Rashford anticipated to start training this week, it appears he will join Yamal and Hansi Flick's complete roster for Barcelona's forthcoming pre-season matches in Japan and South Korea.
