Barcelona are monitoring developments at Manchester City, with Hansi Flick reportedly more interested in Rayan Cherki than Erling Haaland.
The Catalan club is among the leading sides watching the situation at the English champions. If Manchester City lose their appeal after being found guilty of financial-rule breaches, a number of their players could become available for a move.
Barcelona have been linked with Haaland in recent weeks and months, but the club may not take concrete steps to sign the Norway striker. A report by El Nacional says Flick is not convinced that Haaland should be the priority target.
Instead, the Barcelona coach is said to be interested in Manchester City midfielder Rayan Cherki.
Cherki has a contract with Manchester City running until the middle of 2030. The 23-year-old is valued at 110m euros by Transfermarkt.
