Barcelona 'keen to sign Valencia youngster'

Barcelona are reportedly interested in bringing Valencia youngster Fabio Blanco to Camp Nou.

The 17-year-old is said to be regarded as one of the best talents in Los Che's youth system but only has a contract at Mestalla until the end of June.

According to Marca, Valencia are determined to renew the attacker's contract, but a number of clubs, including Juventus, are keeping a close eye on the developments.

The report also claims that Blanco has caught the attention of Ronald Koeman's side with his performances at youth level, and the Catalan giants are keen to secure his signature this summer.

Barca are allegedly keen for the Spaniard to initially turn out for their B side with the view to progressing to the first team in the future.

A number of Bundesliga clubs are also said to be interested in his signature.
