Borussia Dortmund has approached Barcelona to discuss the potential signing of promising youngster Lee Seung-woo, the player's agent Pere Guardiola has revealed.
The 19-year-old is regarded as one of the brightest prospects at Camp Nou, but he has yet to make his competitive first-team debut.
Lee made his debut for Barcelona B in 2015-16, but found himself representing their Juvenil A side again this term.
With first-team opportunities seemingly some way off for the highly rated forward, Bundesliga side Dortmund are seemingly ready to offer him a chance.
"Dortmund have enquired about Lee with Barcelona," the forward's representative was quoted as saying. "Talks are ongoing."
Lee has a contract with the Catalans until June 2019, but he reportedly has a €3 million buyout clause.
Fellow Bundesliga side Schalke have also been credited with an interest in signing the Barcelona youngster.
