Man Utd ‘to sign Barcelona starlet Jurado’ as they agree transfer terms with 16-year-old after he rejects Nou Camp deal

MANCHESTER UNITED have reportedly agreed a deal to sign Barcelona youngster Marc Jurado this summer.

Diario Sport claims the 16-year-old right-back has struck personal terms with United after snubbing a Nou Camp contract extension.

Jurado has come up through the ranks at Barcelona for the past nine years.

However, he has decided to try his luck in England despite still being a teenager – just like Cesc Fabregas and Gerard Pique.

Barcelona were confident of keeping Jurado tied down to the club after seeing fellow prospects Ansu Fati and Ilaix Moriba commit to new deals.

However, United are now toasting the capture of the highly-rated prodigy as Ole Gunnar Solskjaer looks to invest in youth and bring back the glory years to Old Trafford.

One man who may be waiting a while for his United switch is Jason Sancho.

Reports claim United are set to shelve their move for the Borussia Dortmund star this summer after the coronavirus crisis cast uncertainty over the upcoming transfer market.

United were ready to make a £100million move for the England international, who is also wanted by Chelsea and old side Man City.

But the Red Devils accept it is now more likely to happen in 2021.
