RB Leipzig show interest in Ilaix Moriba, Barca set price tag (reliability: 5 stars)

RB Leipzig are interested in Ilaix Moriba, whom Barcelona have decided to sell, the reliable Moises Llorens and Samuel Marsden of ESPN report.

The Catalans are ready to sell the 18-year-old €15m-€20m as they consider it impossible to extend his contract. Moriba's current deal expires already next summer.

Ilaix's case is a strange one, as he could be leaving the club despite Ronald Koeman liking him. The coach used the youngster on 18 occasions last term, preferring him ahead of Riqui Puig.

It's said that the reason Barca cannot agree a new deal with the La Masia youngster is Moriba's agency insisting on a bigger salary.
