Arsenal are about to lose 18-year-old midfielder Marcus McGuane to Barcelona – as per reports.
The tough-tackling midfielder joined the Gunners academy in 2005 at the Under-6 level and has come up through the ranks. But a failure to break into the first team set-up has meant that McGuane is looking to move out of England.
Marcus McGuane has played 3 matches for the Republic of Ireland U17 national team and recently Scottish side Rangers have shown a keen interest in signing up the 18-year-old.

The SPL side were offering McGuane regular football at the club but it seems that the midfielder has his heart set on a move to Barcelona.
