Serdar Tasci: 'Barcelona want to sign me'

Stuttgart defender Serdar Tasci has claimed that he is a transfer target for Barcelona this summer.

The 25-year-old still has two years remaining on his current contract with his German employers.

However, should Barca firm up their interest by making an offer, the centre-back has admitted that he would find a move to the Nou Camp hard to turn down.

"I've heard that I'm a candidate for Barca," he said. "If an offer comes from Barcelona, you have to get together and have talks."

Reports in Germany have suggested that Stuttgart would allow Tasci to leave for a fee in the region of £7m.
