Levante attacker Etta Eyong has been linked with a move away from the club, with Manchester United and Barcelona keen. 

According to a report from Spanish publication SPORT, Manchester United are interested in the 21-year-old attacker, and they would be willing to secure his signature in the near future. The player has a €30 million release clause in his contract, and Manchester United certainly have the finances to pay up. They could use more depth in the attacking unit, and Eyong would be a solid long-term investment for them. 

The move to Manchester United could be a tempting opportunity for most young players, but the Levante attacker is keen on continuing in La Liga. He would prefer to join Spanish champions Barcelona instead. It will be interesting to see if they are prepared to make a move for him. They were keen on the player earlier this summer.

Can Barcelona sign Etta Eyong?

They have been linked with the young attacker in recent months. They could use more depth in the attacking unit, and the 21-year-old would be a quality addition. He has done quite well since joining the La Liga club, and he will only improve with coaching and experience. He could develop into a quality player for Barcelona with the right guidance. 

They are widely regarded as one of the biggest clubs in the world, and the opportunity to join them will be exciting for most players. It is no surprise that Eyong wants to join them over Manchester United. The development will come as a huge blow to the Premier League club. 

It will be interesting to see if they decide to move on to other targets. 

Meanwhile, Barcelona should look to bring in a quality striker in the coming months. Robert Lewandowski is in the twilight stages of his career, and he will need to be replaced.
