Ajax teenager Naci Unuvar has said that he is "flattered" to be linked with a move to Barcelona but is currently focusing on representing his country.

Unuvar is in action for the Netherlands team at the Under-17 World Cup, which is taking place in Brazil and will run until the middle of November.

Barca are said to be following the 16-year-old, who has managed five goals and one assist in eight appearances for Ajax's Under-19 side during the 2019-20 campaign.

However, while the Dutchman is delighted to be linked with the Spanish champions, he is currently fully focused on representing his national team.

"I am flattered by Barca's interest but right now I am only thinking about the World Cup," Sport quotes Unuvar, who signed his first professional contract with Ajax in May, as saying.

The Catalan giants are also said to be tracking San Lorenzo youngster Matias Palacios, who is representing Argentina's Under-17 side in the same competition.
