Montoya has never quite established himself in the Barcelona first team since emerging from the club’s famed La Masia academy system and the 23 year-old now seems keen to move on in his career – but Barcelona don’t want to lose a player who they have under contract until 2018, meaning that the Catalans hold most of the cards.
Montoya is only third choice right back at the Nou Camp behind Brazilian duo Dani Alves and Douglas, meaning that Arsenal and Liverpool have entered the discussion as they look to secure defensive reinforcements following frustrating campaigns to date.
