Barcelona defender Marc Bartra has surprisingly revealed he wants to stay at the Nou Camp, despite looking set to leave this summer, according to Football Espana. The 24-year-old looked almost certain to leave Barcelona during the summer, after a clause in his contract would have let him move on for a cut-price fee. Manchester City, Bayern Munich and Porto are just a few clubs who were interested in his services. However, the Spain international has vowed to stay with La Blaugrana and fight for his place at the Nou Camp next season. The centre-back, who signed for Barca's youth academy from Espanyol in 2002, finds himself behind the likes of Gerard Pique, Javier Mascherano, Jeremy Mathieu and Thomas Vermaelen in the defensive pecking order. However, despite looking to move on after only playing 14 La Liga games for the Catalans last term, he's wants to remain a Barcelona player. Since being handed his first-team chance in 2009, Bartra has accumulated 79 appearances in all competitions for the Catalan club. Barcelona are aslo keen on Juventus' midfield star Paul Pogba. Barcelona representatives are set to fly to Turin on Wednesday to discuss a potential deal for the Frenchman, as Luis Enrique looks to bolster his squad ready for next season.
