Barcelona had been expected to announce a deal to sign Bergvall this month, but late interest from Man Utd appears to have derailed the Camp Nou side's move for the player. United are in the midst of a restructure, particularly in the footballing department, and have already started to construct a transfer wish list of potential new signings.

He recently made his full Sweden national team debut against Estonia, but prior to that had represented his country's youth sides. He is said to be open to a transfer to either Barca or Man Utd , but has a preference for the Premier League, according to sources close to the player.

Lucas' preferred position is as a central midfielder, but he does like to get forward and create opportunities. He is also a very good defensive player, and his height of 1.87 metres makes him a challenging prospect in the air.

Djurgardens have valued their youngster at around £22 million.
