Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain reportedly both want to sign Barcelona's 19-year-old left-back Alejandro Balde.

Manchester United and Paris Saint-Germain reportedly both want to sign Barcelona defender Alejandro Balde.

The left-back secured his first taste of senior action for Barcelona last season, having developed through their famed youth system.

Furthermore, he also got his first taste of international action during the World Cup in Qatar for Spain, following an injury to Valencia's Jose Gaya who was ruled out a week before the tournament started.

According to Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, both sides are competing for his signature and any deal could be done at a lower cost given the youngster only has 18 months left on his current deal.

The report also claims that Barcelona are in talks with Balde's agent Jorge Mendes, but are currently being held back by financial fair play rules.

Balde has started 12 out of his 14 appearances in La Liga this season, as he has taken over the left-back spot from Barcelona legend Jordi Alba.
