The Roma defender's future is clouded after seeing a move to Zenit St Petersburg fall through last week.

Manolas' agent Ioannis Evangelopoulos has insisted everything is open, declaring: "Inter Milan may be an interesting option, but just as Barcelona, Real Madrid and Juventus are. There are a lot of teams that have been mentioned."

However, Sport says Barca have an advantage on all rivals courtesy of a first refusal option on Manolas.

When the Catalans loaned Thomas Vermaelen to Roma last year, part of the negotiations included gaining first refusal on the Greece international.
