Barcelona after Benzema

16 April 2008 - 11:39

Barcelona have entered the race to sign Karim Benzema from Lyon. The French striker has bagged 21 goals for the French champions in all competitions this season.

  • Mauricio Pochettino confirms fresh injury blow for Chelsea star
  • Arsenal want to make four marquee signings this summer

  • Benzema is valued at around £17 million and Barcelona are preparing a list of targets for their summer transfer moves.



    Sporting director Txiki Beguiristain was in Lyon on Tuesday night to watch Benzema, who came up trumps with a goal in the victory over Metz in the French Cup.



    Man Utd and Chelsea are also expected to wish to make a move for the striker, but Barcelona are believed to have put Benzema in their sights as a potential replacement for the outgoing Ronaldinho.
