The 20-year-old winger has garnered much interest since a breakthrough season in Serie A
That’s according to Roma sporting director Monchi, who deals with the Italian club’s transfers.
Under has had a breakthrough season in Serie A, after moving from Istanbul Basaksehir for £12million in the summer.
“Bayram Tutumlu (a Turkish agent) who has a good relationship with Barcelona, told me that they have asked for the boy,” Monchi told Turkish radio station Radyospor.
“We do not have any big offers, but many teams will follow him, because he’s young and scoring goals.”

The 20-year-old began slowly in Rome but has since impressed, notably bagging Roma’s vital away goal in their Last 16 Champions League victory over Shakhtar Donetsk.
That was scored amid a purple patch of six goals in as many games, which also reportedly caught the eye of Tottenham Hotspur.
It’s no surprise to Monchi, who said last summer: “He is probably the least well known of our new signings for the fans. But not for those of us who work here.
“When the manager and I started looking for a left-footer who could play on the right, we thought of him right away.”

The Turkey international faces his potential suitors next Wednesday in the first-leg of the Champions League quarter-finals - a tie which Monchi admits will be tough.
“I wish I could know if we are going to eliminate Barcelona, but obviously it is difficult to know," said Monchi.
“We are facing possibly the best team in the world, or one of the best, but we have the ambition and we will try to win.”
