da imperador bet： Barcelona are thought to have turned their transfer attention to Arsenal’s Thomas Vermaelen, and will make a move for him this summer according to The Daily Mail.
The Catalan giants are keen to bolster their backline, and had initially targeted AC Milan and Brazil centre half Thiago Silva.
However, with the Rossoneri asking for more than £30 million for the South American defender, Tito Vilanova’s men are considering other options.
Belgium international Vermaelen has emerged a surprise option for the Camp Nou giants, with his versatility of being able to play on the left or centre of defence and in a holding midfield role if necessary of appeal to the Spanish side.
Arsene Wenger will be keen to hold onto his vice-captain, and it is thought that the north London side would turn down any approach from Barcelona.
Spurs target Jan Vertonghen is also mentioned in the Spanish press as a possible target for Barcelona as they look for a long-term replacement for Carles Puyol, and as such Tottenham would do well to wrap up a deal for the Ajax man.
