JJ Gabriel has arrived in Barcelona for talks ahead of a potential transfer, talkSPORT understands.
Barcelona and Real Madrid are understood to be the most viable options for Gabriel should he pursue a move abroad.
Gabriel, 15, is currently on the books at Manchester United, but sensationally asked to leave the club on Tuesday.
The Red Devils remain in the dark as to what prompted the teen's shock request, though they remain hopeful of a resolution.
Prior to Gabriel's plea, he was due to be included in Michael Carrick's first-team squad for their Carabao Cup tie against Brighton on Wednesday, which they lost 3-2.
What has Michael Carrick said about JJ Gabriel's future?
Following the match, Carrick reiterated the need to be 'careful' about the situation given Gabriel's age.
"It's more about the welfare, the care and the attention of JJ as a child really," Carrick said.
"He's certainly a young man. The situation is what it is, but we have to be careful about the exposure on that one."
