Everton winger Gerard Deulofeu keen to concentrate on Spain duties amid interest from old club Barcelona

Gerard Deulofeu is determined not to be distracted by speculation linking him with a return to Barcelona as he turns his attention to duties with the Spain national team.

The winger found himself out of favour at Everton last season but rediscovered his form during a loan spell at Italian giants Milan from January onwards.

The 23-year-old scored four times and contributed three assists in his 17 Serie A appearances, earning a recall to the Spain squad and reportedly attracting attention from Barcelona.
