Spanish giants willing to offer player in exchange

FC Barcelona are interested in signing Arsenal midfielder Mesut Ozil, and could offer one of three players in exchange.

The La Liga giants are keen on adding the play-maker to their already deadly team, and could play him just behind the likes of Lionel Messi, Luis Suarez and Neymar.

Ozil is the currently topping the assist charts in the Premier League, and is closing in on Thierry Henry‘s long-standing record of most assists in a season, but with Arsenal likely to end the season trophyless, he could be tempted to leave the club.

According to reports, Barca are ready to launch a shock move for the former-Real Madrid star and could offer Arsenal a player in exchange.

Three Players Linked

It’s believed they could offer one of Arda Turan, Munir or Sandro in exchange, in order to cheapen the deal to avoid paying anything to Madrid.

When selling Ozil to Arsenal, Madrid inserted a clause into the deal claiming they will get a percentage of the sale if it’s to a Spanish side and if it’s over ÂŁ40million.

Barca are keen to use a player as bait so that they can get the deal below ÂŁ40m and avoid paying anything to their fierce-rivals.
