Barcelona forward Ousmane Dembele could become a potential back-up to the Jadon Sancho transfer if the club fails to sign Borussia Dortmund star.
According to
Daily Star Sport, Sancho remains the Red Devils' No 1 target for the summer transfer window, with the club boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer eager to improve the squad.
However, the financial problems as well as a £100m transfer fee set on the England international might force the Red Devils to go for another possible option.
The Athletic claims United want to limit their transfer spend to £50m ahead of the 2020/21 season.
In that case, Dembele would be more available rather than the England international. Meanwhile, Barcelona will also likely to solve their financial concerns, selling the attacker.
