Manchester United is preparing to enter into a strong competition with Barcelona, in order to sign Paris Saint-Germain star Xavi Simons, who is loaned to German club Leipzig during the upcoming summer transfers.
There is uncertainty surrounding the future of Dutchman Eric Ten Hag, coach of Manchester United, but the Red Devils management wants to obtain the services of the young star.
According to the newspaper "Mundo Deportivo", the Manchester United administration intends to sign the player on a season-long loan from Paris Saint-Germain.
Manchester United faces a major challenge in the deal because of the player’s desire to return to Barcelona and not move to play in the English Premier League.
The 21-year-old played in the La Masia academy from the age of seven to 15 before moving to Paris Saint-Germain.
There is only one hope for Manchester United, which is the financial crisis that Barcelona is suffering from, which hinders the signing of the player.
