- Ex-Barca chief says Rashford better than Williams
- Hits back at Inaki’s jibe at Barca
- Barca face Daegu on Monday
The ex-Barcelona chief hailed the club’s decision to bring in Rashford on a season-long loan deal from متحد and claimed that the England international is a better player than Williams, who, after a massive drama in the transfer market, decided to pen a new 10-year contract with Athletic Club after being linked with Barca for several months.u0026nbsp; u0026nbsp;
Speaking to El 10 del Barca the Gaspart said: “First of all, for me, Marcus Rashford is better than Nico. From here on, I don’t care what Inaki might say. The player has used us in a good way – he’s gotten a good contract, and I’m happy for him. I don’t understand Athletic’s anger. I’ve signed many players from Bilbao, and always got along with their president. This is in the past. We have to focus on the season and trust the squad and the exceptional coach we have.”u0026nbsp; u0026nbsp;
Williams’ brother Inaki, had earlier accused Barcelona of lying during the transfer saga, while revealing how the entire episode took a toll on the Spain international, as his car window was smashed and his mural was vandalised by frustrated Athletic Club fans.u0026nbsp; u0026nbsp;

Rashford, who has come off the bench in Barcelona’s first two friendly matches during their Asia tour, will hope to make his first start under Hansi Flick as the Blaugrana take on Daegu on Monday.u0026nbsp; u0026nbsp;
