Barcelona have a trump card to play in their battle with Chelsea for Sevilla defender Jules Kounde.

Barca could use Sevilla's interest in Nice defender Jean-Clair Todibo to go for Kounde.

Sport says when Barça negotiated Todibo's exit with Nice, they reserved 25% of any future sale and the club are ready to give that up if Todibo moves to Sevilla and facilitates Kounde's arrival at Barça.

Sevilla want around €60 million for Kounde and Chelsea are one of the teams along with Barça who want to sign the France international.

The English club have also been linked with Matthijs de Ligt, who currently looks more likely to join Bayern Munich from Juventus, and Napoli's Koulibaly.

Barça coach Xavi has specifically asked the club to do all they can to sign Kounde this summer.
