Oasis nearly scuppered Marcus Rashford’s<\/a> masterplan as he attempted to travel to Barcelona<\/a> and complete his hotly-anticipated transfer move<\/a>. Rashford, 27, is leaving Manchester United<\/a> on a season-long loan after he was made part of the Red Devils’ five-man bomb squad<\/a>.<\/p>\n The England<\/a> international will join Barca on a temporary basis before a \u00a326million option to buy<\/a> becomes active next summer. Just before 9pm on Sunday, Rashford’s private jet landed in Barcelona.<\/p>\n But the United wantaway and his representatives had hassle getting up in the sky. Rashford had planned to take a private jet from Manchester but ended up having to travel to East Midlands Airport.<\/p>\n That’s because all of the slots at Manchester Airport’s private terminal were full thanks to Oasis<\/a> and their rabid fans, according to the Sun<\/a>. The reunited rockers played their final homecoming gig at Heaton Park on Sunday.<\/p>\n While match-going Manchester City<\/a> fan and legendary guitarist Noel Gallagher<\/a> travelled by train, his City-supporting brother and lead singer Liam<\/a> flew via private jet from his home in the south of France. Celebrities have also flown in from around the world<\/a> to watch Oasis perform 16 years after the brothers’ explosive split<\/a> which contributed to a packed Manchester terminal.<\/p>\n READ MORE: Man Utd ‘hold talks’ with Nicolas Jackson’s representatives in shock transfer twist<\/a>READ MORE: Barcelona’s Marcus Rashford wage contribution revealed as Man Utd star nears transfer<\/a><\/p>\n A source said: “Marcus’ travel plans were disrupted so it was all a bit stressful but he would have walked to Barcelona to sign for them. Noel and Liam can have a laugh that they accidentally put a spanner in the works.”<\/p>\n Upon finally landing in Barcelona, Rashford was filmed getting into a car taking him to a hotel, where he’ll sleep before having a medical on Monday. The 27-year-old didn’t offer any words, but he gave a smile and a thumbs-up to journalists and supporters who were welcoming him.<\/p>\n Rashford identified Barca as his dream move after being told that he had no future under Ruben Amorim<\/a> at Old Trafford. Last month, the forward was asked by Spanish YouTube<\/a> channel XBuyer<\/a> whether he wants to play with Barcelona wonderkid Lamine Yamal<\/a> in the future, and his response was telling.<\/p>\n Will Marcus Rashford be a success at Barcelona? Give us your prediction in the comments section<\/a>.<\/p>\n “Yeah, sure. Everybody in the world<\/a> wants to play with the best,” Rashford replied. “So hopefully, we’ll see.”<\/p>\n Rashford added: “Spain is nice, it’s not too far from home. If I’m training over a long period, my family can come for a few days, it’s a nice location and good weather.”<\/p>\n Join our new MAN UTD WhatsApp community<\/a> and receive your daily dose of Manchester United content from Mirror Football.
