Rashford will not continue to stay in Barcelona next season. Barcelona has decided not to activate their buyout option for the forward, a clause that was included in the loan agreement with Manchester United last summer. Barcelona will not pay €30 million, so the player will now return to Manchester United.
The signing of Gordon a few days ago already indicated Barcelona's decreased interest in Rashford. Gordon, who has left Newcastle United, plays the same position as Rashford, and with Raphinha already a starter in that position, there is clearly an excess of players. Furthermore, this operation involved a significant financial investment, as Barcelona paid €70 million for Gordon.
Tuchel had previously shocked outsiders by omitting several well-known English attacking midfielders from the squad. But will the Three Lions manager continue to exclude one of the most famous among them from his first World Cup starting lineup?
Aside from the left-wing position, Tuchel's biggest challenge is likely to be choosing between Real Madrid's Bellingham and Aston Villa's Morgan Rogers.
Bellingham is still only 22, but he is already widely regarded as one of the best players in world football.
However, Tuchel has repeatedly emphasized that he wants England to stop just assembling the most talented players into a starting lineup, and instead build the smoothest-functioning team.
In the 69th minute of the match, Messi came on as a substitute, marking his 199th appearance for the national team. He delivered a brilliant through ball in just 53 seconds, and Lautaro Martinez was fouled in the box while shooting. The referee awarded a penalty, which Messi then converted.
This was Messi's 117th goal for the national team, and at 38 years, 11 months, and 18 days old, he broke Ángel Labruna's record as the oldest goalscorer for the Argentine national team. Labruna's previous record was set in 1957 against Brazil when he was 38 years, 9 months, and 10 days old.
It has been reported that Real Madrid have re-turfed the first-team training ground at the Valdebebas training base. There are significant doubts over Nico Paz and Víctor Muñoz returning to Real Madrid this summer, while the club are expected to make several signings this summer.
According to previous reports, Real Madrid has a buy-back clause for Nico Paz this summer worth approximately 9 million euros. Sources from Como say Paz himself prefers to remain in Italy, while Real Madrid has not yet made a final decision and hopes to postpone negotiations until after the election

Liverpool's 17-year-old forward Rio Ngumoha will leave the England squad's training camp this week after impressing Tuchel and his England teammates.
The 17-year-old, who was not included in England's 26-man squad, made his debut as a second-half substitute in England's 1-0 victory over New Zealand in a World Cup warm-up match last Saturday and was named Man of the Match.
England will face Costa Rica on Wednesday in their final warm-up match before the World Cup. It remains to be seen whether Tuchel will select Ngumoha again.
