Arsenal left-back Nacho Monreal is reportedly keen on a transfer to Barcelona after a somewhat surprise approach from the Catalan giants.

According to Don Balon, the Spaniard has already held initial talks with Barca chiefs in London over a return to La Liga – something he’d be keen on even if he’s only offered a bench role at the Nou Camp.

The report explains that Monreal could be available on the cheap, around £8.5million, which is certainly a bargain for a player of his quality.

Despite not exactly being a world class performer at any point of his career, Monreal has been one of Arsenal’s most consistent and reliable players since he joined the club.

The 33-year-old may now be looking for one last big move, and a backup role at Barcelona could be ideal for both parties.
