European giants battling for Barcelona starlet

Catalan newspaper El Mundo Deportivo reports that Barcelona midfielder Sergi Roberto has a long list of admirers among the top European clubs.

The highly rated footballer was predicted a bright future early in his career and he has developed into a player everybody thought he would be.

However, the 21-year-old has found it increasingly difficult to break into the first team set-up at Camp Nou, meaning his future might lie elsewhere.

Having made just three substitute appearances in La Liga this term, Sergi Roberto is prepared to leave the Catalans in search of first team football.

According to El Mundo Deportivo, Manchester City, Chelsea, Milan, Tottenham and Liverpool have already expressed their interest in the player, with at least one of the clubs expected to make their move in January.

Roberto has a contract until June 2015 at Camp Nou and a €20 million release clause inserted in his deal.
