Manchester United and Newcastle United are interested in signing Barcelona youth talent Marc Bernal, as reported by ESPN Deportes. The 17-year-old recently debuted for Barcelona but suffered a serious knee injury after featuring in the first three games of the season. Despite his injury, both English clubs are willing to meet his £16.5 million release clause. Discussions have taken place with Bernal's representatives regarding a potential transfer once he turns 18 next year, but the player is leaning towards staying at Barcelona. The Catalan club is close to finalizing a new contract with the defensive midfielder, dealing a blow to the hopes of Manchester United and Newcastle in securing his services.
