Barcelona are tracking PSV Eindhoven midfielder Ibrahim Sangare.
Barca are in the market for a ball-winning midfielder ahead of the January market and Sangare features high on their shortlist.
The 24 year-old Ivory Coast international has been watched by Barca since his time with Toulouse.
Sport says Dutch sources insist Barca have been following Sangare this season, though formal contact is yet to be made.
Barca are turning to Sangare after seeing Martin Zubimendi pen new terms with Real Sociedad.
