Report: Everton to use Ross Barkley sale funds to buy Manchester United duo

Everton have reportedly told Ross Barkley that he can leave the club in order to fund a bid for Manchester United duo Memphis Depay and Morgan Schneiderlin.

The 23-year-old's long-term future at Goodison Park remains uncertain due to an up-and-down relationship with manager Ronald Koeman, who has publicly urged Barkley to improve on numerous occasions.

According to The Express, the Toffees have set Barkley's price at £30m, with a number of clubs including Tottenham Hotspur said to be interested in the England international.

The midfielder, who made his first-team debut in 2010, has scored three goals in all competitions this season.
