Fermin Lopez rejects Manchester United transfer rumors

Barcelona midfielder Fermin Lopez has dismissed speculation linking him to a move to Manchester United. Following a strong performance in a 6-1 victory over Alaves, the 23-year-old Spanish international expressed his desire to remain at the club and eventually retire at Barcelona.

Club sources have described the midfielder as “completely untouchable” and a key component of manager Hansi Flick’s plans. Despite reports of interest from Premier League clubs including Manchester United, Chelsea, and Manchester City, Barcelona officials maintain that no formal approaches have been made for the player, who signed a contract extension earlier this year that runs until 2031.

Lopez has been a significant contributor this season, recording five goals and four assists in 12 appearances. Reports suggest that any potential transfer would require a fee exceeding 100 million euros, though the club currently has no intention of selling him.
