A report claims that Barcelona attacker Arda Turan is a transfer target for super-rich Chinese side Guangzhou Evergrande.

Barcelona attacker Arda Turan is reportedly a transfer target for super-rich side Guangzhou Evergrande.

Guangzhou, who are currently managed by former Brazil boss Luiz Felipe Scolari, are one of a number of Chinese Super League clubs prepared to spend big in an attempt to entice European players to move to Asia.

According to Fanatik, Guangzhou want to add another attacking player to their squad and are prepared to offer Barcelona £43m for 29-year-old Turan, who has scored 10 times for his Spanish club this season.

Turan joined Barcelona from Atletico Madrid in the summer of 2015, but was not cleared to make his debut until the Spanish outfit's transfer embargo had come to an end at the start of 2016.

In October, the Turkish international claimed that Barcelona turned down a bid of £45m from an unnamed Chinese Super League club during the summer transfer window.
