Celta Vigo attacker Nolito waiting for Barcelona call

Celta Vigo striker Nolito is ready to join Barcelona.

With Pedro set to sign for Chelsea, Barca see former B team forward Nolito as a replacement.

"Celta are in charge. There's a release clause and if Barça really want me, they will have to speak to my club," he told Radio Marca Vigo.

"Playing there would be difficult. Even if you play less, playing for Barcelona gives you lots of things. Celta is my home, but if I go to Barça, it'll be because I think it's best.

"If it were about the money, I wouldn't be here any more. I've had offers to earn more, but Barça are the champions of the league and the Champions League."
