Barcelona are reportedly closing in on landing Malaga gem Antonio Cordero after following the youngster for some time.
Malaga have already confirmed that Barca were in touch about Cordero over the summer but had been hoping the starlet would stay and pen a new deal.
Diario Sport are now reporting that Barca have a move “advanced” with Cordero and that he could even arrive in the January transfer window and join up with Barca Atletic.
Barca decided against spending 3 million euros on Cordero last summer but could land him for free as his contract expires at the end of the season.
