Barcelona are eyeing Rayo Vallecano fullback Alex Moreno.

Seeking cover for Jordi Alba, Barca's search has led them to Moreno, reports AS.

Moreno is a former Barca junior and has enjoyed an impressive season in a struggling team.

With Rayo's relegation confirmed, Moreno is expected to be on the move this summer with Barca and Real Betis keen.

Barca also intend to re-sign fellow left-back Marc Cucurella from Eibar, though there is a belief he will then be sold on for a healthy profit.
