Paris Saint-Germain’s pursuit of Ivan Rakitic appears to be hotting up with the latest report claiming they are willing to spend €90 million on the Croatia international.
Sport reckon that the French champions have contacted Barcelona to begin negotiations for the 30-year-old midfielder.
PSG aren’t ready to meet Rakitic’s buyout clause of €120m it seems, but they do want to talk to the player to see if he is interested in a move to Parc des Princes.
Rakitic’s most recent social media activity has been interpreted by many as a commitment to his loyalty to Barcelona amid the current speculation over his future.
