MANCHESTER UNITED’S new regime are lining up a shock move for Luton star Ross Barkley.
United supremo Sir Jim Ratcliffe and sidekick Sir David Brailsford are huge fans of born-again Barkley who they took to their other club Nice in France.
Barkley’s dazzling form for the Hatters has put him on the wanted list at Old Trafford as a surprise and cheap capture.
Barkley, 30, shot to fame with Everton as a teenager but flopped at Chelsea.
Yet he is bossing the Hatters midfield and is a big reason they are punching above their weight.

He helped Luton dominate the ball against United last week and went close to a late equaliser when he hit the bar with a header.
Barkley could leave Luton if they go down.
And despite his contract being complex there may be a way of signing him for a low fee.
The 33-time England international has bagged three goals and registered three assists in his 20 Premier League appearances for Luton this season.
United, who lost 2-1 to Fulham on Saturday, are looking to strengthen in midfield.
