Barcelona are interested in signing the Manchester United defender, Lisandro Martinez. The 28-year-old South American has done well since moving to Old Trafford, and Hansi Flick has identified him as an important target at the end of the season. He has a contract with Manchester United until 2027, and Fichajes has revealed that Barcelona believe now is the right time to make a move for him and sign him for a reasonable fee.

There are people around them who might be inciting them. I don't want to answer this question because, as a coach, what I do is give the players confidence. You try to believe in them so they can grow. I also know there are people around them. I want to wait until this is all in the past. If they decide to change clubs, then we'll deal with it. Now is not the time.

Under La Liga regulations, Barcelona are allowed to sign and register a replacement player if the injured footballer is expected to be out for four months or more. This forecast must be supported by a medical report approved by the competition's Medical Commission. Barcelona have up to 20 days to request the registration of a replacement once the Medical Commission issues a favourable report, and they can use up to 80% of the injured player's salary.

Well, I don't think Villa would want to sell him. I think he's been quite impressive for them from what I've seen of him certainly this year. But you know, that attraction of going to Barcelona for a Spanish player is pretty magnetic. And I'm sure he and his agent will be very tempted if that's the case. And if Barcelona can put together a deal that can actually get paid and get approved, which we know has been their problem.

According to a recent report from A Bola, Jose Mourinho has personally stepped in after learning of FC Barcelona's interest in Nicolas Otamendi. The Portuguese coach has urged Benfica to move quickly and secure the Argentine defender's future with a contract renewal. The report suggests that Mourinho and Benfica president Rui Costa are fully aligned on the issue. Both believe that Otamendi remains far too important to lose, especially to a direct European rival like Barcelona.

These rumours make me feel proud. Just like you read them, I read them too. It means I'm doing well, but there's nothing to it.
