Trezeguet Wants Bara Move

The former France international has been on the radar of Barcelona for much of the summer and is a serious candidate to replace Samuel Eto'o in the squad.

Barcelona's prime target is said to be Arsenal's Emmanuel Adebayor but their attempts to sign the Togolese have so far had no encouragement from the Gunners, who are reluctant to lower their asking price.

On the tenth anniversary of France's World Cup trophy, Trezeguet allegedly told Thierry Henry that joining Barça was a strong possibility after initial contacts with the club, having asked the former Arsenal star about life in Catalonia.

Trezeguet would thus fill the foid that will be left by the departure of Eto'o, who had a meeting today with Txiki Begiristain and Josep Guardiola in the club's dressing room.

The Cameroonian was reportedly asked about the offers he has received and was once again told he is surplus to requirements at Camp Nou. It is believed that both Arsenal and Inter Milan are interested in the player but have yet to launch a formal bid.

It is still unknown whether Eto'o will travel with the rest of the squad on Monday to Scotland for their pre-season tour.
