Barcelona latest club linked with Rennes sensation Desire Doue

Barcelona are one of several clubs who are reported to be tracking 18-year-old Rennes star Desire Doue.

Doue certainly ticks the box after shining in Ligue 1 for Rennes. The teenager is already a key player for his side and is valued at around €20 million.
