It has been reported that Spanish and European giants Barcelona are open to selling Todibo with the option for them to sign him back in the next two seasons.

United may offer up to €20 million (£17.03m) for the 19-year-old, who can operate as a central defender or as a defensive midfielder, but the Red Devils do not have a Barca buy-back option in the deal, according to the report.

Everton and Southampton are also reported to be pushing strongly for the France Under-20 international in the January transfer window.
