Barcelona & Real Madrid learn cut-price fee for Man United talent JJ Gabriel

The respective boards at Spanish football’s two biggest clubs have this week been made aware of the minimal fee which would be required to secure the signing of Manchester United starlet JJ Gabriel.

Youngster Gabriel has of course seen his name dominate the headlines in the Spanish media for several weeks now.

After informing current employers Man United of his intention to move on at the earliest opportunity, the 16-year-old was immediately linked with a potential move to Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Gabriel is widely considered to be a future star in the making, boasting remarkable technical abilities and flair to match.

Owing to his status as an academy player, though, the England youth international will not demand a fee of any sort of significance to secure his desired transfer.

As per a report from Fichajes, citing English outlet The Times:

‘Since he doesn’t have a professional contract, the outlay will be a small compensation for his training, which is estimated to be between €230,000 and €350,000.’
