Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele is allegedly "enthusiastic" about the possibility of joining Manchester United.
Having grown frustrated with their efforts to sign Borussia Dortmund's Jadon Sancho, United are contemplating alternatives to the England international.
Dembele, who is not regarded as first choice at Camp Nou, is said to be on the radar of the Premier League giants.
According to L'Equipe, the 23-year-old is open to making the switch to Old Trafford before Monday's transfer deadline.
United midfielder Paul Pogba is said to have held discussions with the French compatriot in order to encourage him to leave La Liga for England, even if it is on a temporary basis.
While Barcelona want to reduce their wage bill, it is unclear whether they will be able to strike an agreement with United which suits both clubs.
