Barcelona are said to be looking for defensive reinforcements for next season.
The Catalan giants are keen to increase competition for places and find a replacement for Lucas Digne who has been struggling to secure a starting berth at Camp Nou.
The 24-year-old has made only nine La Liga outings this season and the Spanish La Liga leaders have reportedly already lined up his replacement.
The word is Barcelona are looking towards Olympique Lyonnais full-back Ferland Mendy who’s been making headlines in France thanks to his impressive performances in Ligue 1 this season.
The 22-year-old defender has been going from strength to strength ever since he joined Lyon from the second-tier side Le Havre this summer and it took him no more than 23 appearances to display his full potential.
Diario Sport are latching on a report from France Football, claiming that Barcelona have been following Ferland closely with a prospect of adding the talented youngster at the end of the season.
