Manchester United and Arsenal will reportedly have to shell out £19m in order to sign Atlanta United forward Ezequiel Barco.

The 20-year-old, who moved to the MLS side from Independiente for £11.6m in 2018, has emerged as one of the division's most exciting young talents.

Atlanta are keen to make a profit on the youngster, who plays as a left winger and as a second striker, over the January transfer window.

According to Calcio Mercato, the MLS side believe that Barco is worth £19m, with Manchester United and Arsenal both showing interest in the player.

The report claims that Inter Milan, AC Milan, Roma, Sporting Lisbon, Benfica, Lille and Valencia are also among the interested parties.
