Spanish giants Barcelona are interested in replacing Jordi Alba with Chelsea left-back Marcos Alonso.
According to The Guardian, Barcelona are eyeing up a move for Alonso after being impressed by his performances for Chelsea.
Alonso has scored eight goals since joining Chelsea at the start of last season, an impressive return from a wing-back.
The Spaniard’s only two goals this season both came in a win over Tottenham at Wembley in August, including a sublime free-kick from long-range.
The report claims that Barcelona are looking to replace Jordi Alba and that Alonso is the man they are looking at to take his spot.
Alonso joined Chelsea for £24m from Fiorentina in 2016, and it is likely that Chelsea would demand a big profit in order to let him leave the club.
The wing-back is a Real Madrid academy product, but the report claims that Barcelona are hoping they can persuade him with money.
