Barcelona includes a midfielder in bid for Arsenal star

Barcelona is ready to include Andre Gomes to make an offer in January to Mesut Ozeli of Arsenal.

For Ozil, who will be free in the coming summer, several European teams like Manchester United, Inter Milan, Fenerbahce and possibly even Barcelona are interested.

Barcelona views the 29-year-old as the ideal substitute for Coutinho, which is seen as not going to launch Clopps for his star.

According to Don Balon, Barca considers including Andre Gomes in offer for Ozil. Portuguese has failed to reveal itself at Camp Nou. Barcelona has transferred it last summer for a large sum, which could raise up to 55m euros.
