Barcelona 'are speaking to Borussia Dortmund left-back Raphael Guerreiro as they seek back-up to Jordi Alba'.
The Portuguese international defender, 25, has just finished his third season with the Bundesliga club but has just one year remaining on his contract.
With an extension looking unlikely, Guerreiro could be available for a reasonable price of around £22m and, according to Spanish newspaper Sport, Barcelona are interested.

Barcelona had originally wanted to acquire a back-up left-back on a free but now their mooted move for Ajax centre-back Matthijs de Ligt has stalled, there is more money to spend.
Other options for Barca in that position include Filipe Luis and Alberto Moreno, with the Atletico Madrid man especially keen on a Nou Camp move.
The left-back has just one year remaining on his contract at German club Borussia Dortmund

Another possible option from the Bundesliga is Bayern Munich's David Alaba, whom Barca tried to sign last year, but he comes with an asking price of £53m and high wage demands.
So Guerreiro is the first choice target and contact has been made with his representatives.
