Rumor round-up: Barcelona want Manolas, Azpilicueta linked and Messi vetoes Paulinho move

Manolas agent claims Barca interest

Barcelona are interested in signing Roma defender Kostas Manolas, according to the player’s agent Ioannis Evangelopoulos.

The only problem is, that so are a number of other clubs, with his agent happy to reveal all those who are apparently chasing his client.

He said: "Inter could be an interesting option, the same as Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus are. There are many teams that have spoken to us."

Sport also report that Barca have an option to sign Manolas, acquired when they loaned Thomas Vermaelen to the Serie A side in 2016.
