Lucas Perez 'waiting for Barcelona'

Deportivo La Coruna striker Lucas Perez is reportedly 'waiting for Barcelona' to make a move this summer.

The 27-year-old notched 17 goals in 37 appearances for Depor during the 2015-16 campaign, and it is understood that a number of top-level European clubs are considering summer moves.

Last month, Depor's director of football Richard Barral revealed that no offers had been made for the Spaniard, but hinted that the club would not stand in his way this summer.

Barcelona have been linked with moves for both Luciano Vietto and Kevin Gameiro, but it is understood that Vietto is heading for Sevilla, with Gameiro moving in the opposite direction to Atletico Madrid.

According to Sport, Perez is desperate to move to the Spanish champions this summer and the Catalan outfit are now considering a £16.7m move for the former Rayo Vallecano forward.

Deportivo own 70% of Perez's rights, while the remaining 30% are owned by his former club PAOK.
