Barcelona are still working to register several players for the new season, but the club needs to make room in their squad. 

Several players have been linked with moves away, which will help in registering the remaining players. 

Barcelona are preparing to receive a new bid for one of their youngsters from a Premier League side. 

Which Barcelona youngster could be headed to the Premier League?

According to Sport, West Ham are preparing a bid for a loan move for Hector Fort. 

Fort wants to remain at Barcelona in the future, but he would like the loan move to gain more experience and try to seal a spot with the Catalan club next summer.

West Ham had previously been looking at a move for Barcelona's Marc Casado, but have since turned their attention to Fort. 

Fort's move could help with the registration of goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny, who Barcelona want to register next. 

Several other clubs have shown an interest in Fort, including Everton, Como, and Mallorca. 

Fort did not take part in Barcelona's final training session before the club's second La Liga match against Levante.
