La Liga champions Barcelona are ready to go head-to-head with Manchester City over the signing of the breakout performer of the Spanish campaign to date.
That’s according to Flashscore, who point towards Karl Etta Eyong as the player in question.
Frontman Etta Eyong is for his part in the midst of what has been a remarkable opening to the season.
Across a combined eight appearances on the books of Villarreal and Levante, the Cameroonian has racked up eight direct goal contributions.
With such production comes inevitable outside interest, with a number of clubs from across the continent already understood to have earmarked Etta Eyong as a future signing.
And as alluded to above, if the latest word stemming from the media is anything to go by, two such sides come in the form of Barcelona, and Manchester City.
As per a report from Flashscore:
‘He already has Barcelona and Manchester City chasing him, as well as a few other Premier League teams.’
Etta Eyong’s Levante contract is understood to contain a release clause in the region of €30 million.
