Chelsea defender Antonio Rudiger is open to joining Barcelona in the January transfer window, according to a report.
The 27-year-old has struggled for action since Thiago Silva arrived at Stamford Bridge, failing to play a single minute in the Premier League this term.
Spanish outlet Sport claims that Barca are interested in signing the Germany international, however, having been frustrated in their attempt to land top target Eric Garcia from Manchester City.
The report indicates that Rudiger is keen on making a switch to Camp Nou in the New Year and Chelsea are willing to cash in.
Arsenal's Shkodran Mustafi is rumoured to be further down Barca's list of available options should they fail to reach an agreement with the Blues.
