Real Madrid are reportedly preparing to sign Manchester United wonderkid JJ Gabriel.
The 15-year-old is regarded as one of the best talents in English football, and he has yet to make his competitive debut.
Gabriel has today refused to train with the Red Devils, and reports claim that he has requested to be deregistered soon.
The Englishman does not see his future with the Mancunian giants and seems prepared to move abroad in the near future.
Gabriel has already represented England at the youth level, but he is also eligible for an Irish passport through his father.
As a result, he does not need to turn 18 to move abroad. He could move to La Liga with Los Blancos at the next opportunity.
United have so far refused to deregister the youngster, but that could happen sooner rather than later if nothing changes.
Barcelona are tracking Gabriel too, but Madrid are favourites to sign him. His departure will represent a big loss for United.
