Lopez’s entourage have revealed several clubs are interested in signing him, including from Europe and Saudi Arabia.
United have been interested in the midfielder for some time and raised the idea of signing him in negotiations which saw Marcus Rashford join Barcelona on loan, report Sport.
Now the outlet claims United have submitted a bid worth £61m.
And they are reportedly planning to lure him to Old Trafford by doubling his wages.
However they expect it could be difficult to persuade Lopez to leave Barcelona given he has previously rejected Prem clubs.
But Barcelona are open to selling him and could sell for around £61m.
Reports earlier this summer claim the Spanish giants hit back a bid worth £50m.
