Barcelona eyeing Man City defender Laporte

 Barcelona are eyeing Manchester City defender Aymeric Laporte.

Laporte, 27, was unhappy at losing his regular place last season to John Stones. But the Spain international has reclaimed a starting berth during the first half of this campaign.

However, Barca hope to get another cash injection next summer and make a move for him after signing Ferran Torres, says The Sun.

The Nou Camp giants announced the £55m capture of the 21-year-old Man City star earlier this week.

The cash-strapped side had to take out a loan to afford the attacker.

And they expect to get more money next summer to be able to afford new signings.
