Barcelona earmark Bruno Guimaraes as Sergio Busquets replacement?

Barcelona are reportedly weighing up a summer move for Lyon midfielder Bruno Guimaraes.

The 22-year-old only joined Lyon from Athletico Paranaense in January, penning a four-and-a-half-year contract with the Ligue 1 giants upon his arrival in France.

Guimaraes featured on five occasions for Les Gones before the coronavirus outbreak saw the majority of football across the globe postponed.

According to reports in Spain, the Brazil Under-23 international is currently the subject of interest from Barca, who could attempt to secure a deal during this summer's transfer window.

The Spanish champions allegedly view Guimaraes as the ideal long-term replacement for long-serving anchorman Sergio Busquets, who will turn 32 next month.

Quique Setien's side are due to resume their 2019-20 La Liga season against Mallorca on June 13.
