Manchester United are tracking Frenkie de Jong's situation at Barcelona.
Paul Pogba is expected to leave Old Trafford when his contract expires next summer and will be able to begin negotiations with potential suitors from January.
But United may have already identified the player to fill Pogba's boots in 24-year-old Holland international De Jong.
The Independent says Manchester City have been linked with him, with some reports hinting a swap deal for Raheem Sterling could be in the offing.
But United could also join the race for a player who has racked up 107 appearances for Barcelona since his £65m transfer in 2019.
De Jong, who has made 38 appearances for Holland, was seen as Barcelona's future but their colossal debt of over £1billion is likely to force a firesale of key players.
