Barcelona in battle to keep starlet as Arsenal and Chelsea circle



Barcelona are trying to fight off interest from Chelsea and Arsenal regarding the latest prospect from their famed La Masia academy - Gerard Deulofeu.

It is understood the youngster, already likened to Lionel Messi, has been earmarked for an appearance in the club’s senior squad for this season. But clubs in Europe are already circling, namely Chelsea and Arsenal.

Deulofeu, 17, is not allowed to sign a professional contract at the club until he turns 18 next March and Barcelona are mindful of interest from London.

Arsenal exploited the contractual issue with one of Barcelona’s stars when they signed Cesc Fabregas in 2003, when he was 16.

Deulofeu’s youth contract at Barcelona has two years to run and he has a buyout clause of £3m on his existing deal.

And Barcelona are already planning on drawing up terms for the Spaniard to sign as soon as he turns 18 as they are keen to avoid another Fabregas scenario.

Deulofeu was watched by Arsenal chief scout Steve Rowley this summer as he starred for Spain at the Under-19 Championship.
