"Tutumly (the player's agent), who has a good relationship with Barca, told me that they enquired about the boy. We don't have any big offers, but many teams will certainly be following him because of his goals and young age," stated Monchi in an interview with 'Radyospor.'
Roma signed the 20-year-old last summer for a fee of €15 million - a number that seems minute now given his surge in value. In fact, Under has been tipped for a Ballon d'Or and has been dubbed the 'next Messi.'
In 24 games, the Turk has scored six goals and grabbed one assist. He was part of Roma's successful Champions League group stage campaign and netted against Shakhtar Donetsk.
Despite his impressive stats, Under's real talent is his ability to carry the team on his shoulders at such a young age. He has lead the attack for Di Francesco on a number of occasions and has put himself on a number of sides' wishlist.
Barca will be keen to close in on a signing for Under, even though it seems unlikely that Roma will let go of one of their up-and-coming stars.
