Instead, Fofana is one of Barcelona's most interesting alternatives to Rashford.
The 20-year-old has impressed Deco and Barcelona's other powerbrokers.
However, there is competition for the Belgium international, with Liverpool and Arsenal being identified as the main rivals for Fofana's signature.
Fofana has scored two goals and provided one assist in twelve matches for Olympique Lyon this season.
