Barca linked to Wilshire, Gundogan

El Mundo Deportivo is reporting that Barcelona are keeping close tabs on Jack Wilshire, Ilkay Gundogan and Koke.

With key midfielders Xavi Hernandez and Andres Iniesta at an advanced stage of their careers, the club officials are already thinking about potential replacements.

And while the two players still have several good years ahead of them, the Catalans are slowly preparing for life without two club icons.

According to El Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona have drawn up a list of potential replacements that includes Jack Wilshire, Ilkay Gundogan and Koke.

All three players have been showing a great deal of potential over the last couple of years, and the best thing is that they are all in their early twenties.

However, with all of them regarded as key footballers at their respective clubs, it is perfectly clear Barcelona will have to delve deep into their pockets if they want to lure some of their targets to Camp Nou.
