Barcelona are eyeing up a move for Chelsea fullback Marcos Alonso in January, according to Spanish paper Don Balon.
The report claims that Barcelona are weighing up an approach for the defender, as they look to bolster their squad.
Alonso has been a consistent performer for Chelsea since signing from Fiorentina at the start of last season.
The Spaniard joined for £25m and has slotted into the left-wing back role in Antonio Conte’s side with ease.
The report also claims that Barcelona are not content with Jordi Alba’s current displays, who has been linked with a move away from the club in recent months.
Alba has played over 200 games since joining Barcelona in 2012 but could now be replaced by Alonso.
Chelsea will not let Alonso go on the cheap, with Don Balon claiming Barcelona will have to pay a big sum of money to convince them to part ways with their number three.
The left-back has scored eight goals from defence since he joined the club, scoring six last season and two so far this campaign.
