Gazzetta dello Sport have discussed the interest from Inter and Napoli in the services of Cagliari starlet Nicolo Barella.
“Together with Chiesa, he is the star of Italian Football and he is ready for bigger responsibility,” as expressed by Gazzetta. If Inter want to take Barella for themselves, they have to move now, even if he would only officially move in the Summer. The price is constantly rising. Last year it was €40 million, now it’s €50 million.
The Nerazzurri are believed to be the preferred destination of the player himself but Napoli were the ones to make the first official offer of €20 million plus Ounas and Rog. Although interesting, Giulini rejected this and prefers to wait , also knowing that the player was not going to accept the first offer. Inter are lucky to have the will of a player who leads the most recovered balls (3 more than Allan) in Serie A.
The dream is to pair him with Luka Modric but in addition to the Neopolitans, Manchester United and Arsenal are also very interested and unlike Italian clubs, €50 million is very affordable for them.
