Barcelona will turn to Manchester United midfielder Memphis Depay if unsuccessful in their pursuit of Atletico Madrid ace Luciano Vietto, according to a report.

Manchester United winger Memphis Depay is a reported target for Barcelona should their bid for Atletico Madrid's Luciano Vietto fall short.

The Catalan giants are thought to have made the Atleti forward their first-choice target, despite the 22-year-old finding the net just three times last season.

Vietto's agent confirmed last month that Barca were among those interested in the Argentina international, but it is not yet known whether Atletico are willing to sell to a title rival.

That could mean Luis Enrique turning his attention elsewhere prior to the start of the new campaign, with Spanish publication Don Balon claiming that Depay is the next player on the list.

Barcelona could offer just short of £17m for the Dutchman, exactly 12 months after he joined the Red Devils in a £25m move from PSV Eindhoven.
