 Malian army withdraws from key Tessalit military camp: sources Mali’s army and its Russian mercenary allies have surrendered Camp Tessalit, a strategic military post in the north, multiple sources told the AFP news agency on Friday. An official from the Tuareg-led separatist group claimed soldiers and mercenaries at the camp had "surrendered", following a fierce fight over the weekend. Simultaneous attacks in Mali by militants linked to Al Qaeda and separatist Tuareg rebels on April 25 showed how fighters ​from different groups with different goals were able to strike at the heart of the West African country's military government.

 Moment: Rashford arrives in Barcelona as MU exile takes pay cut for dream move


Marcus Rashford’s willingness to take a 15 per cent pay cut paved the way for his loan move to Barcelona.


The Spanish champions made the Manchester United outcast - who was seen arriving in Barcelona on Sunday night - their top target this summer despite flirtations with Liverpool’s Luis Diaz and Spain winger Nico Williams.


But Barcelona, who have had major financial issues for years, have so far been unable to register new signings and Rashford might have to wait until after the club’s tour of Asia, which starts this week, to be officially added to their squad.


His salary sacrifice — a 15 per cent reduction on his £315,000-a-week wages — makes that more likely.


Barcelona had problems registering players last summer with new arrival Dani Olmo having to sit out the first three matches of the campaign before eventually getting La Liga clearance.


Rashford almost signed for Barcelona in January but La Liga insisted the club sell before they buy and when they failed to offload Ansu Fati, who has since moved to Monaco, the deal had to be put on hold.


Rashford arrives with no obligatory buy-clause and already publicly declared desire to link up with Yamal.


He flew into Barcelona on Sunday night and will train for the first time with his new team-mates on Tuesday subject to a medical on Monday.
