Reports in France and Spain claim that Barcelona defender Jean-Clair Todibo has rejected the opportunity to join Milan, but Manchester United and Monaco are in the running.

The Serie A club had been linked with the 20-year-old in recent weeks, hoping they could sign the defender on loan with an obligation to buy in January.

However, French outlet RMC state that the player was unconvinced about joining the Rossoneri, with Ligue 1 side Monaco thought to be interested in the player.

However, French outlet RMC state that the player was unconvinced about joining the Rossoneri, with Ligue 1 side Monaco thought to be interested in the player.

Additionally, reports in Spain suggest that Manchester United have now entered the race to sign the centre back.

Diario Sport believes that United are prepared to pay €20m to land the defender, and a deal could thrashed out.

However a sticking point seems to be The Red Devils’ refusal to insert a buy-back clause into the contract.

Calciomercato.com had stated that talks between Milan and Barcelona had broken down due to a disagreement on how any potential deal would be structured.

Todibo wants first-team football and has only played for the Catalan side twice in La Liga this term.
