Newell's Old Boys starlet Luciano Cingolani is reportedly at the centre of transfer talks with Manchester United over a move to Old Trafford.
The young striker is said to have been targeted by the Red Devils' sporting director Martin Mackey, who has already made contact with the South American club.
According to Rosario 3, Newell's are yet to decide whether to offload Cingolani, but the Premier League giants could sweeten the deal by allowing him to remain in place for the time being.
United are said to be prepared to bide their time until the timing is right, although other clubs could soon pounce for the Argentine ace.
Newell's famously had Lionel Messi on their books as a youngster, with the Barcelona forward recently reiterating that he intends to return to the Rosario-based club one day.
