Barcelona are interested in Chelsea striker Romelu Lukaku.

Marca says Lukaku, who has fallen out of favour at Stamford Bridge in recent months, has moved up the priority list for Barcelona who are desperate to sign a striker ahead of next season.

Barcelona had been in pursuit of Robert Lewandowski but Bayern have made his situation very difficult and have remained blunt in the idea that the Polish striker will play in Germany next season.

Erling Haaland has been closely linked with a move to Manchester City in recent weeks meaning a move to Spain is unlikely for the Borussia Dortmund striker.

Lukaku joined Chelsea for a reported club record fee of £97.5 million after winning the Serie A title with Inter Milan the year before.

He's mustered just 12 goals in all competitions for the Blues, which is some way off his impressive 64 goals in 95 games across two seasons with the Italian champions.
