Barcelona are keeping tabs on Villarreal striker Nilmar Honorato da Silva, El Mundo Deportivo understands.
A number of Villarreal players are looking to leave the club after the Yellow Submarine suffered a shock relegation to Segunda and the Brazilian is one of them.
The 27-year-old was long ago linked with a big club move, but the El Madrigal outfit eventually decided to hold on to him.
El Mundo Deportivo now claims that Barcelona are showing interest in the player who never hid his desire to join the Spanish giants.
The Catalans are looking to sign another attacking player and they believe Nilmar’s versatility would be a big asset at Camp Nou.
Villarreal chiefs are aware they cannot prevent high-profile players from leaving the club after being relegated to Segunda and they are willing to cash in on the Brazilian.
According to El Mundo Deportivo, the Yellow Submarine would settle for a transfer fee of €8 million.
