Barcelona Eyes January Move for Manchester United's Jadon Sancho and Anthony Martial
Barcelona is exploring the possibility of signing Manchester United's Jadon Sancho and Anthony Martial in January.

This report, initially from Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, suggests that Barcelona's manager, Xavi, is interested in both players and anticipates that the club may receive offers for players who are out of favor with their current managers during the winter transfer window. Barcelona, due to its financial situation, is considering unconventional transfer approaches, and this includes targeting the Manchester United duo.
