Barca consider Cuadrado as Bellerin move stalls

The Arsenal right-back is the Catalans' top target for that position, but a transfer looks increasingly difficult as the Gunners do not want to sell

Barcelona are considering a move for Juventus winger Juan Cuadrado as Arsenal look like hanging on to Hector Bellerin this summer, Goal understands.

Bellerin is Barca's top target for the right-back role in 2017-18, but the Catalans are unwilling to pay in excess of €50 million for a defender and may turn their attentions to Cuadrado instead.

The Colombian international is reluctant to play as a defender and has said he hopes to stay at Juventus this summer, but the Bianconeri may sell for a fee in the region of €30m and that could suit Barca.
