Bayern Munich have joined the list of clubs interested in signing midfielder Ivan Rakitic from Barcelona, according to a report.
The 30-year-old may be allowed to move on at the end of the season as Barca have agreed a deal for Frenkie de Jong and also have their sights set on Atletico Madrid's Saul Niguez.
Chelsea, Manchester United and Inter Milan have all been credited with an interest in the Croatia international, and the Italian side are rumoured to have already made contact with Barca.
Spanish outlet Sport claims that Bayern may be about to step forward with an offer, meanwhile, with Rakitic believed to have been made available for £44m.
Rakitic's agent Arturo Canales recently stated that it is "impossible" for his client to leave Camp Nou this year, but his stance is said to have changed amid Barca's links with Saul and Adrien Rabiot.
