Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur reportedly register their interest in Barcelona's Ilaix Moriba alongside Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United.

Barcelona youngster Ilaix Moriba is wanted by each member of the Premier League's 'Big Six', according to a report.

The 18-year-old enjoyed a breakthrough season under Ronald Koeman last term but has been banished back down to the B team amid a tense contract stand-off.

Moriba's existing deal at Camp Nou is due to expire in the summer of 2022, and Blaugrana president Joan Laporta has expressed his frustration at the situation, with the teenager's high wage demands thought to be holding up negotiations.

Chelsea, Manchester City and Manchester United have all been tipped to swoop for Moriba, but 90Min now claims that Arsenal, Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur have all spoken to the midfielder's entourage.

The report adds that West Ham United, Everton, Leicester City and Wolverhampton Wanderers have also been alerted to Moriba's availability, while RB Leipzig, Borussia Dortmund, Monaco and Lyon are hoping to convince him to snub interest from the Premier League.

Moriba registered one goal and three assists from 18 appearances in all competitions last term, and Barcelona supposedly remain confident about their chances of tying him down to a new deal.
