Barcelona prepared to offer ‘XXL salary package’ as Man United youngster’s January exit opens up

Barcelona is prepared to offer a significant salary package to lure Manchester United's young prospect, JJ Gabriel, who is set to turn 16 in January. According to journalist Florian Plettenberg, a Cypriot passport could potentially make Gabriel eligible for a transfer before his 18th birthday, clearing a path for a potential move abroad.

The Catalan club, along with Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain, and others, are all considering offers that include substantial salary, bonuses, and signing fees. However, Barcelona's sporting director has previously downplayed the interest, stating that the club is not actively pursuing the youngster. If Gabriel is able to legally move abroad, the situation could open the door for a January departure, potentially allowing interested clubs to pursue him on a free transfer.
