Juventus midfielder Christian Poulsen could join Spanish giants Barcelona, as early as January, if the Bianconeri have their way.

These are the rumours that are filtering out of Spain, in particular from radio station Cadena Ser.

According to the station, the 29-year-old could join the Blaugrana in the winter transfer period, and the Italian club are willing to negotiate the release of the Danish international.

Poulsen has also been linked to Roma, to reunite with his former coach Claudio Ranieri, who is a keen admirer and played an instrumental part in bringing him to Turin.
