Most people expected that the first stop for “Kid Messi” would be the Spanish capital as he was almost completely in agreement with Real Madrid. – Things are not looking good for Manchester United at the moment, they are losing a generational talent while nothing works on the pitch. – Only four points from the first four games of the Premier League season.
It’s really a perfect fit for “Kid Messi” to play for Barcelona.

Manchester United’s youngster JJ Gabriel has left for Barcelona as some of Europe’s biggest clubs continue to fight for his signature.
The 15-year-old has told Manchester United that he wants to end his registration with immediate effect.
BBC Sport reported on Thursday that Real Madrid have a clear interest in the striker, and Bayern Munich, Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona are also known to be interested.
It is understood that Gabriel left the UK on Thursday and travelled to France, but that he is now in Barcelona. If United keep the London boy’s registration, it will prevent him from going to another English club until the end of the season.
But if he obtains an EU passport through either his father – a former Ireland international – or his mother, who has a Greek Cypriot background, he can join an EU club when he turns 16 on October 6.

What happens next for Gabriel and Manchester Utd?
Gabriel has not trained with United since scoring a hat trick in his UEFA Youth League debut on September 10. The tournament’s rules prevent him from playing for a club other than United in this season’s competition.
Sources close to Gabriel were furious that the club did not register him for the Champions League opener against Sabah FK. Michael Carrick’s side won 4-0, one of the few bright spots this season.
The United manager was asked about Gabriel again on Friday in his press conference ahead of Sunday’s Premier League game against Fulham.
“He’s a young boy, JJ, and I think it’s important that we don’t play anything out here,” he said.
“With all the attention, the scrutiny and everything, you have to be careful and sensible and think of him above all else.
“The situation will resolve itself, no matter how it will work out. The most important thing is to make sure he is okay.
Gabriel scored in his first two Premier League 2 games for United this season but will not be involved against Brentford at Leigh Sports Village on Friday.
Manchester United’s big talent JJ Gabriel, who is described as a super player, is said to want to leave the English big club. The 15-year-old is said to have sent a message to United to end his registration with the club – in order to become completely free on the market and be able to go to another club.
Now several British media, including the BBC, Daily Mail and Manchester Evening News, write that Gabriel has arrived in Barcelona for talks.
Previously, Talksport has also reported on interest from Barcelona, among others. In addition, both the BBC and The Guardian have written about interest from Real Madrid.
Over the years, Gabriel has scored 29 goals in 32 appearances for United’s U18 team and two goals in two appearances for the giant’s U21 team.
Tomorrow, Saturday, Manchester United travel to Craven Cottage to face Fulham, while Barcelona travel to the Estadio Ramón Sánchez Pizjuá to face Sevilla.
