FC Barcelona are keen on roping in US women’s national team star forward Megan Rapinoe.

According to an ESPNFC report, Barcelona — who have invested a lot in their women’s team since turning professional in 2015 — are in a position to sign Rapinoe, who on Monday night took home the women’s award at the Best FIFA Football Awards at a glittering ceremony at Teatro Alla Scala, Milan.

“I think we’re in a position to be able to sign that level of player,” director Maria Teixidor was quoted as saying by ESPNFC.
