  Journalist Fabrizio Romano is reporting that La Liga's champions are interested in signing the Dutchman, who is available for just €25 million (£22m/$29m). No official offer has yet been made.

• THE BIGGER PICTURE

  A low release clause is bound to suit Barcelona, who are suffering high-profile financial issues and cannot afford to spend huge transfer fees on players. Hansi Flick's side are already showing interest in using a large amount of their budget on Nico Williams, though they are being rivalled by Bayern Munich for that deal.

  DID YOU KNOW?

  Dumfries played a crucial role in knocking Barcelona out of the Champions League semi-finals last season. He scored a brace for Inter in the first-leg 3-3 draw in Spain before his side won the second leg 4-3.

• WHAT NEXT FOR DUMFRIES?

  A move seems some way off for Dumfries, with it not yet being clear whether a deal can be done in time for the pre-season tour of Japan and South Korea this month or even the start of the season in August.
