Barcelona ready to find buyer for Inigo Martinez

Barcelona are ready to find a buyer for Inigo Martinez.

The defender joined Barca last summer from Athletic Bilbao, but he is likely to depart at season's end.

Sport says Barcelona expects Martnez to leave this summer.

Pau Cubars has made a breakthrough in recent months, while Eric Garca is likely to return from his Girona loan to fill Martnez's place in the squad.

The 32-year-old earns 8m-a-year. By dumping Martnez, Barcelona will be able to create space for new acquisitions.

Barcelona plan to help Martnez find an attractive move elsewhere.
