Barcelona have rejected the chance to sign Arsenal and Liverpool target Max Meyer, according to reports in Spain.
The 22-year-old Germany midfielder’s contract with Schalke expires at the end of the season and he has already twice rejected offers of fresh terms from the Bundesliga club.
It is unclear whether Schalke will make another offer before the summer, and Meyer has been widely tipped to move on at the end of the season, when he will be available for free.
Meyer is not short of potential suitors with both Arsenal and Liverpool leading the charge from the Premier League, while clubs from Italy and Spain also remain in the hunt.
