The remarkable stats of the young striker have made him highly coveted by Barcelona despite his age.
Details: According to The Sun, Barcelona are making several attempts to sign 15-year-old Manchester United academy forward JJ Gabriel.
The Catalan club is impressed by the teenager’s numbers: at just 15, he has netted 10 goals and provided 1 assist in 10 appearances for Manchester United U19.

It is reported that Manchester United director Jason Wilcox and head coach Ruben Amorim are doing everything possible to keep Gabriel at the club. Amorim even allowed the 15-year-old striker to train with the first team, as JJ himself revealed back in October.
JJ Gabriel is a product of Manchester United’s youth academy, and if Barcelona manages to pull off the transfer, it would be the first move of the young prodigy’s career.
