Firpo warns Barca: "Rashford is on fire"

The Manchester United-Barcelona Europa League clash took centre stage on Thursday. Former Barca man Junior Firpo warned in 'AS' what Xavi Hernandez's side could be in for at Old Trafford.

The Leeds United player praised the undisputed star of the Red Devils, Marcus Rashford: "They have a striker who does everything, he's on fire and he's one of the best in the world right now.

The Dominican Republic-born player also confessed his good relationship with his former team-mates: "I spoke to Frenkie (de Jong) a couple of days ago and I often speak to Araujo. For me, right now, he is the best centre-back in the world.

Junior Firpo also spoke about Pedri and Gavi: "Having been there when I was young, I'm amazed at the attitude they have. Sometimes I think that I wish I had come to Barça with the maturity I have now".
