PSG star deals transfer blow to Arsenal and Liverpool as he hopes for ‘dream’ Barca move

Paris Saint-Germain striker Ezequiel Lavezzi has been linked with a move to the Premier League

EZEQUIEL LAVEZZI has revealed that it would be a ‘dream’ to play for Barcelona.

 

The Paris Saint-Germain forward, whose contract at the French club runs out next summer, has been linked with a move to a host of top clubs including Arsenal, Liverpool, Juventus and Barca. 

But Lavezzi, whose reportedly rejected a contract extension at PSG, has outlined his ambition to play for the Spanish giants. 

 

"I'll be calm and I'll try to make the best decision. Rumours are normal because my contract expires. We'll see," he told TYC Sports.

"I won't deny it would be a dream to play at Barca, although I'm now playing at a team that is almost as good." 

 

The 30-year-old’s contract is set to expire next summer and, under transfer rules, he is free to negotiate terms with other clubs within six months of his current deal ending.

Therefore, the Ligue 1 outfit are open to selling him in January for as little as £3.5million as they look to recoup some cash before the summer. 

Lavezzi joined PSG from Napoli for £21million in 2012 and has scored two goals in his last 15 appearances for Laurent Blanc’s side.
