Real Madrid are at the forefront of signing Manchester United prodigy JJ Gabriel at the expense of their rivals, Barcelona.
Real Madrid are certain of signing Gabriel despite interest from other top European outfits.
Gabriel has been training at Barcelona for weeks after his acrimonious departure from Carrington because United reneged on their promises to give the teenager playing opportunities.
Despite using Barça’s training facilities, the England international has chosen Real Madrid ahead of Barcelona, Chelsea and PSG.
Yankeescores reported in September that Manchester United were not ready to lose their prime asset elsewhere, but Gabriel’s representatives are adamant, and it appears the latter will have the last laugh.
United are battle-ready to take legal action to prove that an illegal approach was made while the teen was under contract with the Red Devils.
Gabriel clocked 16 on October 6, and everything is getting set for him to sign for Los Blancos.
Gabriel will definitely not make his way to the first team, but rather join Real’s B team, Real Madrid Castilla, who compete in the second division of the Spanish league. He will also represent Real in the UEFA Youth League.
Chelsea Lose Out of the Race
Yankeescores in September reported that Chelsea was the preferred destination for the Manchester United prodigy.
Manchester United hold the 15-year-old in high esteem and would do everything within their power to retain his services.
