Barcelona join chase for Arsenal defender
Barcelona could rival Manchester United for the signing of Arsenal defender Thomas Vermaelen this summer, according to reports in the Sun.
The Belgian international has been at the Emirates Stadium since 2009, but has found himself out of the first-team picture for some time now after something of a dip in form.
United have identified him as a possible target as they look to strengthen in defence, but Barcelona are also in the market for new signings in that position.
