Barcelona identify Ajax's Ryan Gravenberch as a possible long-term replacement for Sergio Busquets, according to a report.

Barcelona have reportedly identified Ajax's Ryan Gravenberch as a possible long-term replacement for Sergio Busquets.

The 19-year-old has been an important player for his Dutch club during the 2021-22 campaign, making 30 appearances in all competitions, contributing one goal and four assists.

A number of teams, including Bayern Munich, Manchester City and Real Madrid, are said to be keen to sign the Netherlands international during this summer's transfer window.

Barcelona have also been strongly linked with the teenager, and according to Mundo Deportivo, the Catalan giants view him as a leading transfer target.

The report claims that Gravenberch is seen as a potential replacement for Busquets, who will turn 34 in July.

The Ajax youngster has less than 18 months left to run on his current deal, but he has insisted that he will not be leaving the Amsterdam giants on a free transfer.

The Dutchman has scored 10 goals and provided 11 assists in 91 appearances for Ajax in all competitions, while he has been capped on 10 occasions by his national side.
