Barcelona midfielder Riqui Puig has reportedly emerged as a transfer target for Champions League semi-finalists Villarreal.
The 22-year-old has frequently found himself frozen out at Camp Nou, the academy graduate making just one start and 12 substitute appearances this campaign.
As expected, the Catalan giants are ready to cash in on the player, aware that he will not be short of offers at a time when they are keen to raise funds for other targets.
According to El Nacional, Villarreal are ready to take advantage of the situation by offering Puig a chance to fulfil his potential at Estadio de la Ceramica.
The report suggests that Villarreal are one of several clubs of a similar profile who will attempt to sign Puig, with Real Betis, Celta Vigo, Arsenal and Roma also said to be interested.
