Man United interested in Barca wonderkid Cubarsi for next term

Manchester United will look to strengthen their squad as much as possible in the upcoming transfer window following new co-owner Jim Ratcliffe's arrival at Old Trafford. The Red Devils plan to bolster every position in their squad.

The English club are working on their defence before any other position. They have Jarrad Branthwaite, who currently plays for Everton, on their radar and want to sign him at all costs.

However, according to the 'Mirror', he is not the only one who could bolster United's defensive line next season. Barcelona wonderkid Pau Cubarsi is also being targeted by them.

The 17-year-old is putting in superb performances in recent crucial games for the Catalan side, which has led him to establish himself as an undisputed starter among coach Xavi Hernandez's men.

Cubarsi, who is being compared to Gerard Pique, received the MoM award in the Champions League last 16 meeting against Napoli and shone with his performances in the La Liga match against Atletico last weekend.
