Stoke City full back Glen Johnson remains on the radar of Barcelona boss Luis Enrique, the Daily Mail reports.
Barca is in need of options due to Aleix Vidal's failure to adequately replace Dani Alves at right back, with utility man Sergi Roberto slotting in instead.
The report suggests the Blaugrana will try to sign Johnson on a short-term permanent deal and look to loan out Vidal for some much needed first-team experience.
The 32-year-old is highly regarded by Luis Suarez from the striker's time at Liverpool and the Uruguayan could help ensure a smooth transition.
