Barcelona have publicly stated they have no interest in signing 15-year-old winger JJ Gabriel from Manchester United, despite the player's reported desire to leave the club. The teenager was reportedly in Spain last week.
Gabriel has been linked with a move to Real Madrid, United's fierce rivals, who are also said to have held talks with the young player. The situation has sparked a tug-of-war for the promising talent.
Sources indicate that Gabriel himself has initiated a request to depart Manchester United. The club has not commented on the player's future or his reported desire to leave.
