Barcelona eye Bilbao defender Martinez transfer as Pique retires this weekend

BARCELONA are lining up a transfer for Inigo Martinez in order to replace Gerard Pique, according to reports.

Pique announced he would be leaving Barcelona and retiring from football in a heartfelt video posted to social media earlier this week.

Athletic Bilbao defender Martinez is the man they want to replace their outgoing legend.

Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo report that a verbal agreement has already been agreed between Barca and the 31-year-old to join next summer.

However, Pique’s retirement will accelerate these plans, with the Blaugrana looking to acquire Martinez on the cheap in winter instead.
