Barcelona are ready to find a buyer for Inigo Martinez.

The defender joined Barca last summer from Athletic Bilbao, but he is likely to depart at season's end.

Sport says Barcelona expects Martínez to leave this summer.

Pau Cubarsí has made a breakthrough in recent months, while Eric García is likely to return from his Girona loan to fill Martínez's place in the squad.

The 32-year-old earns €8m-a-year. By dumping Martínez, Barcelona will be able to create space for new acquisitions.

Barcelona plan to help Martínez find an attractive move elsewhere.
