FC Barcelona considering bid for Yann M’Vila - report

Barcelona are reportedly considering a bid for Rennes midfielder Yann M’Vila, who has also been linked with Arsenal.

M'Vila recently confirmed he will leave Rennes this summer and has been linked with a number of clubs in recent months.

Arsenal have been widely seen as favourites to sign the tough-tackler for some time, although reports in recent weeks have suggested their interest may have cooled as a result of his behaviour during Euro 2012.

The likes of Inter Milan, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Real Madrid have also been linked with the France international, but according to El Mundo Deportivo, Barca are showing interest in the 22-year-old as a possible replacement for Seydou Keita.

Keita left the club on Saturday night and has agreed to join Chinese outfit Dalian Aerbin.

Although M'Vila has stated he is ready to quit Rennes, the club's general manager Pierre Dreossi last week confirmed he is yet to receive any offers.

Speaking to RMC, Dreossi said: "There is interest in Yann M'Vila, but no concerete offers."

"It is early in the window, we will wait for offers to arrive."

Rennes value M'Vila at around £17million.
