According to a report published by Mundo Deportivo, Barcelona are interested in signing Liverpool and Juventus target Leon Goretzka from Schalke.
Goretzka starred at the Confederations Cup in June which Germany won and January could be a good time to swoop for him considering that his current contract is set to expire at the end of the season.
It has also been reported that officials from Barcelona were watching the 22 year old in action during their Bundesliga outing against Mainz.
