According to reports in Spain today, Barcelona have made Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger their top target to replace current under pressure boss Frank Rijkaard.Barca are currently lying 8 points behind top of the table Real Madrid in La Liga and many people in Spain feel Rijkaard will be gone once the season comes to an end.
Jose Mourinho, Marco Van Basten and many others have been mentioned as possible replacements to Rijkaard but it is now thought that Wenger is the preferred choice of the Barca board.
Wenger has been at the Gunners for twelve years now and is now regarded as a legend at the club. He has won numerous amounts of trophies at the North London club including three Premier League titles.
It would be a real shame to see Wenger leave the Premier League and I am sure everyone at Arsenal will be doing their upmost to fend off interest from Barcelona. But you never know, if Wenger wins the title this season he may think he has done enough at the Gunners and move onto something else.
