This season, Anthony Elanga, who almost did not get a chance in the ranks of "Manchester United" in January, received unexpectedly a lot of playing time from other European clubs.

It was reported that at least 10 European clubs were following the situation, including names like "Borussia" and "Barcelona".

It was precisely "Barca" that was mentioned as the team most seriously interested in the winger.

These rumors were confirmed by the player himself in an interview with "Aftonbladet", where he admitted that he would like to get more playing time.

“There were talks with ‘Barcelona’, but now I am focused on ‘United’ matters. We need to finish this season as well as possible,” he said.

“At the moment, I don't want to think about what could have happened in January. I want to finish this season as well as possible and then we will try to talk to club representatives.

“I love ‘United’ very much, but at the moment it is very important for me to get playing time,” A. Elanga said.

This season, Elanga played 24 matches in the ranks of "Man Utd".
