Barcelona are reportedly stepping up their attempts to sign Arsenal right-back Hector Bellerin, with a club official said to be "jetting around Europe" in a bid to seal the deal. Meanwhile, Paris Saint-Germain's Adrien Rabiot is understood to be a priority target for the Gunners.

According to Spanish newspaper AS (h/t Sport Witness), Barcelona technical director Robert Fernandez flew to London for talks with Bellerin's representatives before heading to Italy to watch him in action for Spain's under-21s on March 27.

If said report proves to be genuine, the path seems too coincidental not to match up with interest in Bellerin in some form, particularly given the La Masia academy graduate has been fiercely linked with a return to the Camp Nou of late.
