VIDEO: Lamine Yamal & Marcus Rashford bonding already! Barcelona wonderkid hits Man Utd outcast's trademark goal celebration in training session

Lamine Yamal and Marcus Rashford are already forming a bond at Barcelona, with the teenage sensation emulating the Manchester United loanee's iconic goal celebration during a training session. Rashford's move to the Spanish champions was the culmination of a long-term effort behind the scenes as the England international had been eager to leave Old Trafford following a breakdown in his relationship with Ruben Amorim.

Yamal found the back of the net in training and celebrated in a way that instantly caught the attention of those watching. Standing motionless and holding his index finger to his temple, the 18-year-old copied the signature move Rashford uses to celebrate his goals, a gesture widely believed to reference his personal journey toward mental resilience.

Rashford reportedly maintained frequent contact with Yamal, expressing his enthusiasm for joining forces with the young prodigy. That connection has now translated onto the training ground, with early signs suggesting the two attackers are clicking both tactically and personally.

As part of the loan agreement, Barcelona reportedly hold a €30 million (£26m/$34.5m) option to make the transfer permanent next summer. That clause could prove to be a bargain if Rashford settles in well and rediscovers the form that once made him one of England‘s most exciting forwards.

Barcelona are scheduled to take on Jesse Lingard and his team-mates in a pre-season friendly against FC Seoul at the Seoul كأس العالم Stadium on Thursday.
