Catalan sports paper Sport claims that, with several other targets like Benzema, Ibrahimovic or Adebayor not being available, Valencia forward and Spanish international David Villa (26) is at this moment one of the main options of Barcelona to replace striker Samuel Eto'o (read more here).
Although Valencia officially doesn't want to let the player go, it is clear that they won't be able to keep Villa if he gets an financially interesting offer from a European top club. Barcelona is willing to push hard for the Spanish international.

Villa, Silva and Moutinho and our squad for next season will be complete. Forget Hleb and Mancini!
i totally agree with the comment above!!!! silva and villa are a MUST!!
totally agree villa ans Silva (most importantly) are paramount buys. We must get at least Silva. but i would prefer diego (werder) to moutinho... for deco's position
What do u think???
Diego would probably be a better buy than Moutinho, but he would be a lot more expensive so not sure if we can get him on top of Silva and Villa. I think Moutinho is a lot more realistic.
Diego choked as Deco's successor in Porto, in Bremen he has all the freedom he wouldn't get at Barça.
Moutinho > Diego overall, his workrate and pressing is much, much better, while Diego is more of an pure AM, Moutinho could play every position in MF.
absolutelly silva and villa and forget hleb and mutinho, david villa is the best opion for barca attack
i'd rather diego than silva but that's just me...it also depends on whether or not pep will still be using rijkaard's 4-3-3 which i think he will. in that case diego would slot in well in roni's place if indeed he does walk the plank. if that system IS in place i don't see villa going it alone up top either. i just don't think he's tall enough even though i'm a big fan :( moutinho would be perfect as deco's heir. look at that deco just scored a goal for portugal.
If we get Villa and Silva ready for next season i really believe that our beloved Barca can begin a new era. Much younger and hungrier team. Villa,Silva,Alves and Caceres will be our future. I hope Guardiola forgets about Hleb and Mancini. Benzema will be a fantastic player for us,and he is young and hungry for glory. BARCA FOR EVER!
Valdes -Alves - Puyol - Caceres - Abidal - Messi - Xavi - Iniesta - Silva - Eto´o - Villa. Think about it!!!
well, i think if villa comes etoo is going becouse we cant play with 2 forwards, we need one place fora a DM, that means toure has to play, so only 1 striker.
my biggest wish is to see benzema iu barca but it seems its not going to happen this year, so we HAVE to get villa. silva is a MUST, moutinho only if we have enough money left...

now when i think about it, maybe its even better to keep etoo for one more season and than sell him and get benzema... if we buy villa now that means that we wont buy bezema next year... well i like benzema more than villa!

I just watched Portugal's game against Czechs. That Moutinho guy didn't impressed at all, and after all Barca already got two defensive midfielders (Toure,Keita). So 20M or more for him-wasting money. 20M + would be good to spend for left winger. Instead, Villa impressed everybody yesterday with his hat-trick so buying him would be a smart move. Gomez is also a good option and Barca fan such as Villa but almost 30M for him, it's just too much. Diego is more needed to Barca but he declared he'd prefer move to R.Madrid just like Huntelaar, so we must forget about them. I think that it would be great to see V.d Vaart in Barca squad next season, he's Barca fan and better player than Moutinho.
Yes, I forgot, Benzema also declared he'd prefer to join R.Madrid. so forget about Diego, Benzema and Huntelaar.
I dont think Benzema said he would prefer to play for Real. What i read is that he would be love to play for Real, but he also said the same thing about Barca a while ago. I dont think we should read too much into those comments. Any player asked if he would like to play for Real Madrid will say yes, same with Barca and any other footballing giant. I have a feeling he will end up at Barca, the fact that he is learning Catalan is a much bigger hint than his comment regarding Real.
Well so much for getting Villa at a reasonable price! That pretty much went straight out the window after his performance against Russia. Besides Villa himself, I don't think anyone was happier than his performance than Valencia. I can see their eyes lighting up with "$" signs, "ching, ching"! So now that he's the man of the moment and the hottest property out there who's going to make the first move and offer Valencia a ridiculous amount of money for him? The truth of the matter is that Barcelona are in greater need of a left winger at the moment. So maybe bypassing Villa (at least for now) and focusing on Silva might be their best move. With all the attention focused on Villa, perhaps Barcelona can go in the back door and snatch Silva up while all the other teams are stargazing over Villa. Don't get me wrong I'd love to add Villa too, but with all the transfers Barca's already made do they realy have another 30-40mil available to spend on him? That's why I question the signing of Keita. You could have saved 16mil right there. And by the time the team sells Eto'o Villa will probably already have a new address with another team. Just get Silva for now. If you wait too long you're likely to miss out on both players!
we cant keep eto'o for one more season! his contract is up in two years.. which means their is a significant risk of him leaving for free at the end of two years.. which would be terrible.. he is a world class striker but a horrible team mate.. sell him!!!!!!!! and everyone says oh we need this guy or that guy.. diego benzema villa silva, mancini alves etc etc... WHAT WE NEED TO DO IS GET RID OF PLAYERS FIRST!!. We still have not finalized the zambrotta sale.. deco and eto and ronaldinho and gudjonsen are all still on the books. before we buy anyone we need to sell some players... buying is the easy part.. since our technical secretary is terrible and we are a big supposedly rich club, we end up paying everyones ridiculous buy-out clause anyway. so we can stop all this crap about negotiation and just pay the stupid clauses. It is much more difficult to sell players and I think this should be our priority.
we need silva and benzema(or villa) then our squad will be completed.considering moutinho we already have kieta so we wont need an another midfielder.BUT BUY SILVA WE WANT HIM HE IS A SUPERB WINGER TO REPLACE RONALDINHO WITH HIS SKILLS ON THE BALL.
