Barcelona are reportedly planning an approach to sign former Chelsea midfielder Oscar from Shanghai Port.



Oscar left the Blues for the Chinese Super League outfit in 2017, and he has since been a vital player for them.

In recent times, he has talked about returning to European football on multiple occasions, and Barcelona are now keen.

The Catalan giants recently parted ways with Philippe Coutinho. He has joined Aston Villa on loan with an option to buy.

The Blaugrana want to replace him with Oscar, but it is unclear as to what kind of deal they will propose for the Brazilian.

Oscar is earning a staggering €450,000-a-week, but he is willing to accept a significant salary cut to head to Camp Nou.

The 30-year-old has not been called up by Brazil since 2016, but he harbours the dream of playing in another World Cup.

Tite recently recalled Hulk following his return to Brazilian football. Oscar will be hoping for a second chance as well.
