Mendes offers Leicester fullback Pereira to Barcelona

Leicester City fullback Ricardo Pereira has been offered to Barcelona.

Sport says super agent Jorge Mendes has been in talks with Barca directors this week over the future of Nelson Semedo.

The young fullback is keen to leave this month after struggling for a regular start under coach Ernesto Valverde this season.

Mendes has been discussing his client's situation with Barca and during the talks offered another of his players - Pereira - to the Catalans as a direct replacement.

Leicester face a battle to keep hold of the Portugal international, who is also being linked with PSG, Tottenham and Manchester United.
