Asked about the rumours linking Galatasaray attacker and Turkish international Arda Turan (22) with a move to several European top clubs among which Barcelona, the player's agent has said in an interview with Spanish football site Futbolmercado that he didn't hear anything:"There is nothing concrete about Barcelona or the other clubs. Of course he would be interested, but we didn't receive any offer.

Since Rjikaard is looking to acquire Henrique on loan, why not play the card and sign Arda Turan? The guy has attracted very nice reviews. It seems capable of playing winger & AM like our Iniesta. So would be a very good back-up :)

i have seen him play lots of time and he would definitly fit in the barca system... but i think it will not happen... he will be too expensive i think...
I thik anderlecht player Boussouffa would be a great signing too... he was voted best player in belgium twice and has won a lot in belgium...
he wont be expensive... can play on both wings and ATM... Has great passing ablity and technique... only thing is his small physique

Anurag Said,
i have seen the wuros and turan was always turkey's major attacking force. but barca material? i cant really say for sure..

lionel Said,
he's gonna be available about 15-20m. i live in turkey and he is the best turkish player and he has a good character. he can adapt very quickly.
is he physically enough?no, is he mature? no, have some shooting skills but has to work very hard.
he has become captain this year. rijkaard and everyone counts on him.i mean its very unlikely for now but may be next summer.

"Would sure like to know who would be chosen between Afellay & Turan if it were to be "!!
I am from Holland . Affelay is a good player BUT Arda is a better overall player with superiour ball skills . If I have to choose between the two I would definitely sign Arda !!

Dembele is better than both Affelay and Arda.

This would be an awesome addition to our squad, but very unlikely to happen this year or next..
