MANCHESTER UNITED have been sensationally banned from signing Barcelona forward Luis Suárez for free due to a clause in their contract.
United has been revealed to be one of several clubs that the Uruguayan won’t be able to join for anything as he negotiates his departure from Barca.

Suarez was linked to a move to Old Trafford this summer, but with his ties to Liverpool, it wasn’t likely to happen.
He was also found guilty of racially abusing United legend Patrice Evra in 2011, making the move impossible.
The other clubs on the list have been reported to include Real Madrid, Man City and PSG, according to ESPN.
His fierce rivals, Atlético, were not officially on the list and had started negotiations with Suárez.
However, Barça president Josep Bartomeu was not happy and added Atlético to the list of banned clubs, according to AS.
This means that Atlético will now have to make a formal offer for Suárez if they want the deal to go through.
Suárez, 33, is said to be furious and is considering holding a press conference with his lawyers, as he claims that Barça promised his contract can be terminated.
Juventus were also in the frame of his signing, but the deal fell through amid claims that Suárez cheated on his exam to obtain an Italian passport.
He has been looking for a new club since Ronald Koeman took over.
The former Dutch coach has started to dismantle the Barça squad after his regrettable exit from the Champions League last season.
Liverpool are keeping an eye on developments and have been linked to a loan move for struggling French winger Ousmane Dembele.
