Manchester United wonderkid JJ Gabriel is now reportedly expected to seal a transfer to Real Madrid in January, according to David Ornstein.
The 16-year-old has been the subject of plenty of speculation in recent times after emerging as one of the most exciting young talents in Man Utd’s academy, even though he’s yet to play a single minute of senior football for the club.
Having decided to leave Old Trafford, Gabriel was recently linked with the likes of Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain by Sport, with that piece from a few days ago also suggesting he was leaning towards the Bernabeu.
