BARCELONA have reportedly made an enquiry for Manchester United star Victor Lindelof.
Mundo Deportivo claims Barca are trying to land the Swede after losing out to Juventus in the battle for Ajax’s Matthjis de Ligt.
United have already snubbed an initial approach from the Spanish champions.
But Ernesto Valverde has no intention of giving up on Lindelof.
The 24-year-old defender became a key part of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s back-line last season, making 40 appearances in all competitions.
United are desperate for Lindelof to this summer.
And Solskjaer is believed to be hunting for a new centre-back to partner him in the new campaign.
Leicester’s Harry Maguire was a top target before he opted to join rivals Manchester City.
