Cuadrado pleased by Barcelona rumours

Juan Cuadrado is pleased to hear rumours that Spanish giants Barcelona are interested in the Colombian winger.

Currently preparing for Colombia’s Copa America campaign, Cuadrado is seemingly weighing his options up ahead of the next season.

Cuadrado commented on the rumours, as reported by FourFourTwo but remained focused on the summer ahead.

It’s nice to hear, but here you do not think about it, only the national team. After, we will see what happens with my future.

Chelsea are reported to be keen to keep, with incoming manager Antonio Conte a fan, especially with his reported 3-5-2 system the Italian is wanting to employ at Stamford Bridge next season, but will now face some serious competition.

It was confirmed this week that Dani Alves will be leaving Barcelona, with Juventus highest on the list to sign the Brazilian full-back, and the Catalans see Cuadrado as the perfect replacement.

Having spent most of the 2015-16 season playing wing-back on loan at Juventus, he’s seen as the perfect replacement for the attacking Alves.

A lot of Chelsea fans are excited to potentially see Cuadrado given a second chance in London, but Champions League football could sway him away from the club.
