Barcelona are keeping tabs on Jadon Sancho's situation at Manchester United.

Sancho has been ordered to train away from the first team squad after criticising manager Erik ten Hag online.

The England winger has been told he will be allowed to rejoin the squad once he apologises - which he so far has refused to do .

Sancho now favours quitting United in January after being priced out of a Saudi Pro League move a fortnight ago.

Sport says keeping tabs are Barca, where the Catalans will consider a New Year move for the winger.

Barca would seek an initial loan arrangement with United.
