Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets is reportedly open to a transfer to Manchester City during the summer.

Barcelona midfielder Sergio Busquets may potentially sign for Manchester City during the summer transfer window.

Busquets has spent his entire career at Camp Nou, making a total of 650 appearances and winning an astonishing 30 pieces of silverware.

However, despite remaining as a first-team regular this season, the 33-year-old is susceptible to an exit at a time when the Catalan giants are in transition and need to reduce their wage bill.

According to El Nacional, president Joan Laporta would not make a considerable effort to retain the services of the Spaniard if an offer is made at the end of the season.

The report adds that Busquets is open to a move to the Premier League, specifically Man City who are managed by former Barcelona boss Pep Guardiola.

Busquets may be regarded as the ideal replacement for long-serving Fernandinho with the Brazilian turning 37 years of age in May.
