Barca prepared to sell Balde when he returns from injury (reliability: 4 stars)

While Alejandro Balde recovers from his hamstring injury, his name has come up as another player Barca are willing to sell in the summer, per Mundo Deportivo's Fernando Polo.

Barcelona are happy with Balde but given the club's financial problems, they would happily cash in on the Spaniard if a tempting offer comes in for him. Reports say Chelsea are already snooping around the 20-year-old.

Balde picked up a nasty injury during Barca's defeat to Athletic Club in the Copa Del Rey back in January. Initial prognosis say left-back could be out until the summer which means his Barca may sell him then just when he's fully recovered from the injury.

Before the injury, Balde was not having the best season by his high standards and was sometimes benched for Joao Cancelo who's a right-back.

However, the player comes with bags of potential, a blistering pace and immense talent. Last season he was named the best left-fullback in La Liga which tells you all you need to know about how good he can be.
