Barcelona monitoring United starlet

  • Matthew Klimberg
Barcelona has added Manchester United standout Anthony Martial to their list of players to monitor. The French star has enamored executives from the Blaugrana with his skill set and young age. According to Mundo Deportivo, Martial will see increased interest from the La Liga side as his fortunes continue to rise in England.

The French national team star is part of a potent attack at Old Trafford, which includes Marcus Rashford and Romelu Lukaku, with Zlatan Ibrahimovic on his way back from injury. Such depth will afford Jose Mourinho the ability to sell one of his young stars should the team decide to.

The French forward came to Manchester United from Monaco in the summer of 2015 in an operation coded at 50 million fixed that could reach 80 million. In nine matches across three competitions this season, the 21-year-old has recorded five goals and six assists to help lead the Red Devils to an excellent start.
