Valencia are interested in Barcelona attacker Abel Ruiz.

Stuck with Barca B so far this season, Ruiz is set to be allowed to leave in January.

Barca are keen to send the youngster away on-loan, though will consider a straight sale so long as a buy-back clause is included in the deal.

Valencia tried for his signing in the summer of 2018, but at that time the Barcelona refused to consider Ruiz leaving given his form at the time.

However, his situation has now changed - and just this season he has scored just three goals in 13 games with Barça B .
