Barcelona after Anton!

Sky Sports today claimed that Barcelona could make a bid for Anton Ferdinand. The good news is that they believe they can't afford him.

Ferdinand is believed to be the first choice of three defenders Barcelona have been watching. However it is believed Barcelona have only a limited budget and with some expensive targets, like Henry, they might not be able to also afford Ferdinand.

Sky Sports suggest that Barcelona might make an offer of around €8 million (£5.5 million) or try an exchange offer for Gabri, who West Ham were looking to sign in the winter transfer slot.
