15-Second Brief
The family of 15-year-old Jay Jay Gabriel is demanding Manchester United terminate his contract due to the club’s ongoing decline. The player is in talks with Real Madrid and Barcelona. United manager Michael Carrick hopes for a peaceful resolution.

The decline of Manchester United since Sir Alex Ferguson's departure has prompted the family of Jay Jay Gabriel to demand the termination of his contract. According to Daily Mail Sport, the 15-year-old is already in talks with Barcelona and Real Madrid.

A source close to the family has shed light on the father's ambitions for his son.

His father has aspirations for him to become the best in the world, playing with and learning from the top talents, and right now, United's situation is far from that.

Gabriel has been absent from training since he submitted his request to leave last weekend, having been left out of the squad for the Champions League match against Sabah.

Notable agent Ali Barat is set to represent the player when Gabriel turns 16 on October 6. If the club refuses to grant his contract termination, the young talent may pursue free agent status through the Premier League or FIFA.

United's head coach Michael Carrick has cautiously addressed the matter during a press conference.

He’s a young lad, Jay Jay... the situation will resolve itself, however that may be. The main thing is to ensure he's alright.
