Chelsea ready to battle Paris Saint-Germain for Barcelona midfielder

Chelsea and PSG are apparently prepared to go head to head for the signature of Barcelona outcast Miralem Pjanic this present summer’s transfer window.

The ex-Juventus man just arrived at Camp Nou the previous summer in a deal which saw Arthur Melo head the other way, but he has started only six La Liga matches during a hopeless 2020-21 season.

Besides, with Barcelona expecting to raise funds amid debt of up to €1bn, the Bosnia and Herzegovina International is anticipated to be one of the first names on the transfer list when the forthcoming window opens.

As indicated by Le 10 Sport, Barcelona are now attempting to offload the Pjanic, with Chelsea and PSG both eyeing a loan move for the 2021-22 season.

The report adds that 31-year-old himself is desperate to move on subsequent to spending weeks warming the bench, however his huge wages could end up being a hindrance, and his current Barcelona deal – which lapses in 2024 – incorporates a £365m buyout clause.

Miralem Pjanic was brought on for the last four minutes on a weekend ago’s 2-1 loss to Celta Vigo, which was his first taste of La Liga action since February.
