Chelsea have interest in signing – Player already offered to Blues back in May

Miralem Pjanić’s failed to enjoy regular playing time in his debut season at Barcelona.

In May, Le10 Sport reported the midfielder wanted a move away from the Camp Nou and had been offered to Chelsea and Paris Saint-Germain.

For the past week or so, Tottenham Hotspur have been positioned as the main suitor from the Premier League.

Marca have come out with their own report today and their title reads: ‘Tottenham and Chelsea look at Pjanić’.

Within the report, it’s stated the Champions League winners are ‘interested in taking over his services’.

The La Liga side, down at their end, need to carry out on a handful of exit operations to lighten their salary budget. This is also needed to extend Lionel Messi’s contract, which expired on June 30th.

Barca have a ‘proper name’ on the table when it comes to an exit, and that’s of the Bosnia and Herzegovina, who has lost prominence under Ronald Koeman.

Apart from Chelsea, Manchester United and Juventus get a mention, as the Spanish club ‘seek a destination’ for the 31-year-old this summer.

Pjanić, however, is in ‘no hurry’, and Marca adds the player would start preseason training with Barcelona and only then he would he take a decision on his future.
