Will Rashford repeat his golden season under Flick?

German coach Hansi Flick appears to be preparing for another test in his coaching role with Barcelona, this time with English star Marcus Rashford, who recently joined the Catalan club on loan from Manchester United until June 2026. Rashford , who made his Barcelona debut by scoring his first goal in a friendly against South Korea's Daegu, is on the list of attackers Flick is looking to bring out the best in, emulating what he has done with other stars who achieved their best scoring figures under his leadership . Flick is known for his unique ability to develop the individual performance of his players, especially in the attacking line, where his technical impact is linked to increased scoring rates among attackers . In Rashford's case, regaining his well-known form in the 2022-23 season, in which he scored 30 goals and provided 12 assists, could mean a significant quality boost to Barcelona's attack, bringing the total number of goals scored by the team's attacking line to 169 if each player repeats their best scoring seasons . Flick has successfully motivated a number of stars to reach their peak, most notably Polish striker Robert Lewandowski, who scored 55 goals in a single season with Bayern Munich under his leadership in 2019-20, the best-scoring season of his career . The same trend was repeated with Brazilian Rafinha, who scored a total of 34 goals and provided 25 assists in the 2024-25 season, a personal record, compared to his previous best seasons . Despite not always being a starter, Ferran Torres scored 19 goals and provided seven assists in what was his most outstanding season yet . Lamine Yamal continued his rapid development under Flick, scoring 18 goals and providing 25 assists last season, compared to only seven goals the previous season .
