Barcelona chase Gunners trio


BARCELONA are reportedly tracking Arsenal trio Robin van Persie, Theo Walcott and Alexander Hleb.

A revolution is underway at the Nou Camp, with new boss Pep Guardiola set to ring the changes and start afresh.

Ronaldinho and Samuel Eto'o are two of the big names expected to leave the Catalan club this summer.

And, according to DiarioSport, Guardiola is eyeing Hleb, Walcott and van Persie to give the team an added dimension of width in attack.

Walcott broke into the Gunners' first team last season, while van Persie is an integral part of the side, despite a string of injuries that have hampered his campaign.

Hleb has been an ever-present since his move from Stuttgart three years ago.

Arsene Wenger will not want to see three of his prize assets leave, especially given that Mathieu Flamini has already moved to AC Milan and Hleb's future is already uncertain after interest from Inter Milan.
