Barcelona defender Yerry Mina has claimed that he would like to play first-team football with "less pressure" next season.

Mina only signed for Barca at the start of 2018, but the Colombia international has been linked with a summer switch away from Camp Nou.

Everton have been strongly linked with an approach for the centre-back, and the 23-year-old has indicated that he is open to a transfer away from the Catalan giants.

Mina is quoted by the Daily Mail as saying: "I want to play for a team where there is less pressure and where I can have minutes.

"I will always try to do my best for me, for my club and I hope that wherever I end up, whether it is at Barcelona or whether I have to leave, I will do it in the best way."

Agent Jair Mina has rejected suggestions that the player is already close to signing for Everton.
