Gianluca Zambrotta could be on his way back to Italy after AC Milan approached Barcelona over a potential summer transfer.
Zambrotta joined Barca from Juventus in 2006 but the 31-year-old full-back has struggled to recapture his best form in Spain.
However, the Italy international could be set for a summer return to his homeland with Milan, who are in the market for full-backs after deciding to release Serginho and Cafu.
"I still don't know what will happen," said Zambrotta.
"I have a contract until 2010 but I know Milan and Barca have held talks, although I don't know anything definite yet.
"It is true that I am happy in Spain, but after a while you get the desire to return to your home country."
