If reports in the media are anything to go by then Manchester United are close to sealing the signing of talented right back Marc Juardo.
The 16-year-old right back confirmed on his Instagram account that he is leaving Barcelona. Moreover, journalist Albert Rogé has confirmed that next season, the youngster will play for the Red Devils.
Juardo stated:
“Today it’s time to say goodbye, but not before expressing my gratitude to each of the people who have helped me since I started in the prebenjamín in the year 2011.
“I have been lucky to share my passion with a fantastic generation, with which I will always be linked.”
According to The Metro, Man United have already agreed terms with the teenage defender, who is now set to join the club.
As far as the compensation fee is concerned, Mirror Sport have claimed that the Old Trafford outfit would pay around £200,000. On the other hand, The Standard have reported that Barca are set to get around £175,000 for the fullback.
Last month, renowned Spanish source Sport claimed that the Catalan giants expect to receive 1.5 million euros as compensation for Juardo. So, the reports about the price are contrasting.
We do not know a lot of Marc Juardo but based on the involvement of two massive European sides, we can deduce that the boy is talented. Barcelona wanted to keep him but now he is leaving for Manchester United.
