Barcelona 'are considering a move for ex-Spurs defender Juan Foyth' after missing out on Cesar Azpilicueta... but the Argentine 'will only be allowed to leave if his £35million release clause' is met

Barcelona are considering a surprise move for former Tottenham defender Juan Foyth, as they look to strengthen their right-back spot.

The Catalan club were pursuing Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta, but that came to an end after the Spaniard signed a two-year extension in London, leaving Xavi's side to look elsewhere.

Signed initially as a central defender, Foyth's impressive performances at full-back have put some of Villarreal's biggest league rivals on red alert this summer.
