Marcus Rashford to return to Man Utd?

Barry has slipped down the pecking order this season and has been told that he is free to leave the Etihad Stadium should a team either offer to pay his entire salary for the duration of a loan spell or if a team matches the reported&nbsp;&pound;2 million asking price City will let the player leave.<br />

Arsenal were amongst the teams interested in Barry earlier in the transfer window but have since plumped for Mathieu Flamini, who returned to Arsenal yesterday evening.<br />

Martinez is hopeful that a deal can be agreed for Barry by Monday afternoon.
