The 32-year-old is out of contract at Chelsea at the end of the current season and is yet to agree to an extension. Barca are looking to shore up their defense and could turn to the Spaniard for reinforcement in the summer.


Arsenal urged to sign Calvert-Lewin

Arsenal have been urged by former Gunner Paul Merson to sign Everton's Dominic Calvert-Lewin in the summer.

Merson wrote in his Daily Star column: "Dominic Calvert-Lewin is a perfect fit for Arsenal and they should break the bank to sign him next summer. Arsenal need a world class centre forward. They've just saved £25m in wages getting rid of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang."


Rudiger rejects latest Chelsea offer

Antonio Rudiger has reportedly rejected the latest contract offer put forth by Chelsea, according to the Daily Mail.

The German is out of contract at the end of the current season and is being closely monitored by Real Madrid, PSG, and Manchester United. The report claims that the Blues offered him an increased wage of £200k-per-week but that wasn't enough for Rudiger who believes he can earn as much £400k per week as a free agent.
