Olympique Lyon fullback Eric Abidal is ready to go on strike to get his move to Barcelona.
Marca says Abidal has discussed with his agent going AWOL from Lyon's first training session for the start of preseason. Mahamadou Diarra did something similar last summer to clinch his move to Real Madrid.
Lyon are insisting on £15 million for Abidal, while Barca has so far offered £8 million for the France international fullback.
