Barcelona chasing PSG and Toulouse midfield stars

Barcelona chiefs are launching Bosman bids this week for French pair Adrien Rabiot and Jean-Clair Todibo.

PSG midfielder Rabiot and Toulouse defender Todibo are both off contract at the end of this season, leaving Barca now free to formally discuss pre-contract terms.

Mundo Deportivo says Barca are eager to tie up deals for both French youngsters as quickly as possible and negotiations will kick off today.

Barca are confident they already have the commitment of Todibo, though Rabiot is proving a tougher case.

The midfielder has raised his personal demands in recent days to €10m-a-year plus a €10m signing on bonus - something which Barca refuse to countenance.
