Sevilla are a step away from re-signing Barcelona veteran Ivan Rakitic.

The Croatia midfielder has been urged by Barca management to find himself a new club this summer.

Marca reports Sevilla and Barca are now in advanced talks over a deal for Rakitic.

Sevilla will pay €8-10m, with Rakitic joining on a deal worth €3.7m-a-year.

Barca are keen to clear Rakitic's €8m salary off their books.
