Inter are hoping to conclude contract negotiations with Nicolo Barella by next month, according to a report in the Italian media today.

As has been reported by Calciomercato.com, an agreement between the player and the club is believed to be just one step away now.

The new deal is expected to be a five year one and will see the 24-year-old Sardinian earn €5 million per season as well as any bonuses he or the team manages to achieve.

All that everyone appears to be waiting for now is the official announcement that the midfielder will be part of the Nerazzurri project for a long time to come.

There has been some serious interest in Nicolo Barella from teams such as Paris Saint Germain and Liverpool over the past year or so.

These rumours intensified after his excellent displays for Italy at Euro 2020 in the summer but the contract will bring stability.
