Barcelona midfielder Gavi is a transfer target for Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool, according to a report.

Premier League trio Chelsea, Manchester City and Liverpool are all reportedly desperate to sign Barcelona midfielder Gavi in one of the next two transfer windows.

The 17-year-old became Spain's youngest ever player last year, while he has been a regular at club level this season, featuring on 24 occasions in all competitions, scoring once and providing three assists.

Barcelona are working to sign the youngster to a new deal, as his current contract is due to expire in June 2023, and there is believed to be a €50m (£42m) release clause in the agreement.

However, Xavi's side have thus far been unable to agree fresh terms with the Spaniard, and according to El Nacional, there is interest in his services from Chelsea, Man City and Liverpool.

The report claims that Chelsea are 'very serious' about the teenager and are prepared to offer him a much higher salary than the one placed on the table by Barcelona.

Bayern Munich have also been credited with an interest in former Real Betis youth-term player Gavi, who has made 17 league appearances during the 2021-22 campaign.
