Just have him! Man Utd, Spurs and Arsenal alerted as Barca chiefs offer Alex Song for free
BARCELONA are so desperate to see Alex Song leave the Nou Camp this summer that they will allow the Cameroonian to leave for free.
Spanish reports claim the Catalan giants want to bait Arsenal, Tottenham or Manchester United into signing the 26-year-old on a season long loan.
Barca will sweetened the deal by foregoing a loan fee that would normally have been in the region of £2m.
Song commands a sizeable £75,000 per-week wages that Barcelona chiefs are eager to rid themselves of.
Luis Enrique has made it painfully obvious that Song is surplus to requirements in Spain, after making him the only player out of Barca's twelve substitutes not to make an appearance in last nights drubbing of Leon.
Enrique has already signed Ivan Rakitic who is proficient in Song's holding role, and has refused to rule-out the possibility of further transfers.
The Cameroonian international made just 18 appearances in all competitions for the Catalan giants.
And looks set for another extended spell on the sidelines unless he secures a move away from the former La Liga champions.
