Barcelona eyeing Diego Alves

Spanish champions Barcelona are hot on the trail of Valencia goalkeeper Diego Alves, Mundo Deportivo can reveal.

The Catalans are ready to let Claudio Bravo move to Manchester City, but only if they can sign a replacement for the Chilean.

And while they were also looking at Sergio Rico, Barcelona appear to have made Diego Alves their number one target.

The Catalans are already in talks with Valencia over the signing of Paco Alcacer and they will now attempt to bring his teammate to Camp Nou as well.

Diego Alves is also on the radar of Atletico Madrid and Sevilla, but the player reportedly prefers a move to Barcelona.

The Camp Nou outfit are ready to include Munir El Haddadi and Sergi Samper in the deal that should see Paco Alcacer and Diego Alves move to Catalunya, while Valencia are also set to earn a substantial transfer fee in the process.
