Manchester United retain an interest in signing Barcelona winger Ousmane Dembele.

The winger is in good form with the Catalan giants this season, and has even earned a recall to the France squad for their World Cup Qualifiers.

Dembele was pursued by United last summer, and with his renewed form this season, they have maintained their interest.

Sport claims the Red Devils have kept in touch with the 23-year-old's entourage and have intimated their plan for the future.

The Premier League giants are willing to offer a fee to sign Dembele this summer.

But they are also willing to wait until the end of next season when the Frenchman's contract expires.

Barca are reportedly moving to extend Dembele's contract but they are having trouble convincing him to lower his wages.

New president Joan Laporta hopes talks with commence in the coming weeks.

With free agency approaching next season, Dembele is demanding a high salary from his current employers.

If an agreement can't be reached, Barca would be forced to sell Dembele this year.
