MANCHESTER UNITED are prepared to meet Sergi Roberto's £36m release clause at Barcelona, according to reports.
Just days after Neymar left the Nou Camp in a world record £198million transfer to Paris Saint-Germain, the Catalan giants could be set to lose another star.
Don Balon reports that United are one of three clubs interested in snapping up the 25-year-old Spain international.
Premier League rivals Chelsea and French champions Monaco are also keen to buy Roberto.
SunSport reported recently how Antonio Conte was also willing to meet the release clause to bring him to England.
Roberto has established himself as a key player within the Barcelona first team squad over the past few years, and can play in a number of positions.
Antonio Conte only used a small core of players last term but this year they will be playing in the Champions League.
The Chelsea preferred XI of last season started at least 26 league games each and eight of them began 30 games or more.
