Barcelona receives Roma offer for Krkic

Barcelona says it has received an offer from AS Roma for striker Bojan Krkic.

Barcelona spokesman Toni Freixa says the club is ''evaluating'' the bid for the Spain Under-21 forward, who has mostly been used off the bench since the arrival of coach Pep Guardiola three seasons ago.

Freixa did not say whether the offer was for a permanent move or a loan deal.

Roma recently signed former Barcelona ''B'' team coach Luis Enrique as its manager for next season.

Freixa declined to speak about Chile forward Alexis Sanchez, who is reportedly set to join the Spanish and European champions from Udinese.
