Exciting Barcelona star tempted by Manchester United move
By Bence Bocsak
According to the latest reports this exciting Barcelona star is tempted by a move to Manchester United ahead of the summer transfer window.
They are two of the biggest clubs in world football. Manchester United and Barcelona are up there with the pantheon of footballing Gods. Some of the greatest players have donned the famous crests of the two clubs. From the likes of Bobby Charlton, Laszlo Kubala, George Best, Johan Cruyff to Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Old Trafford and the Nou Camp are giant amphitheatres. Stadiums where kids dream and aspire to play in.
Very few players have represented both sides. Alexis Sanchez, Gerard Pique and Zlatan Ibrahimovic have been the latest ones to have done it.

And it seems another player could be added to that list soon.
According to a report by Spanish outlet Sport via the Daily Express, United are interested in bringing current Barcelona star Ousmane Dembele.
The report has even claimed that Ousmane Dembele has spoken to his fellow international team-mate and current United forward Anthony Martial about a potential move to Old Trafford, implying the Frenchman is tempted by a move to the club.
Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is evidently on the lookout for a winger to add to his ranks with a current shortage of options at Old Trafford.
And Ousmane Dembele seems like the right fit for the Norwegian’s explosive counter attacking style of play.
The 22 year old winger has lightning quick pace and dazzling feet. Dembele was an exciting prospect breaking through the ranks at Rennes before before establishing his status at Borussia Dortmund and earning himself a prosperous move to Barcelona.
However things have not gone smoothly for Ousmane Dembele at the Nou Camp since his arrival. Injury struggles and not being able to fit into the Catalans’ system has blighted Dembele’s progress.
The French star therefore would arrive at Old Trafford with a huge question mark looming over his head and it could be a gamble by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer.
Especially when the Red Devils are also linked with Jadon Sancho who seems like the better prospect at this moment in time.
What do you think, would Moussa Dembele be a good signing for United?
