Freshly-crowned Bundesliga champions Bayer Leverkusen are reportedly interested in signing Barcelona target Aleix Garcia.

Garcia has been linked with a move to Barcelona this season and has said openly that he would like to play for the Catalan giants at some point in his career.

However, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has claimed Leverkusen could try and tempt the midfielder to Germany instead.

Romano says Leverkusen have made an enquiry for Garcia but do also have other names in the frame to strengthen their squad.
