Liverpool have reportedly been linked with a move for the Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella, who will cost around €80 million.
According to a report from Gazzetta dello Sport, Nicolo Barella is one of the midfielders Liverpool are monitoring. And they could make a move for the 26-year-old at the end of the season. But the Reds need to fork out €80 million to sign the Italian international.
Nicolo Barella is undoubtedly one of the most talented midfielders around Europe right now. And he has been linked with a move away from Inter Milan for months. Liverpool could certainly use his creativity and composure in the middle of the park. And the 26-year-old could prove to be an exceptional acquisition for Jurgen Klopp’s side.
Apparently, the Premier League side would have to pay a fee of around €80 million for his services. And it remains to be seen whether they are ready to break the bank for him. The Italian international is surely worth the price that Inter Milan will demand for him.
Liverpool have been linked with players like Jude Bellingham as well, and the England international is likely to cost a lot more. Inter Milan, on the other hand, are thought to be going through financial difficulties. And they could be tempted to cash in on a key player like Barella if an attractive offer is presented.
The Italian international is entering his peak years and he could be a key player for Liverpool in the coming seasons. The 26-year-old has the technical ability to succeed in the Premier League. And a manager like Klopp could help him improve further and fulfil his world-class potential.
Barella has been exceptional for club and country in recent seasons, and he helped Italy win UEFA Euro 2020. The 26-year-old has already proven himself in the Serie A. And the opportunity to showcase his qualities in the Premier League could be an attractive option for him.

Liverpool could provide him with the platform to prove his worth at a high level. And the Reds are certainly capable of paying him big money as well. It remains to be seen whether Barella is open to pursuing a new adventure at the end of the season. While the €80 million asking price seems quite steep, the Reds will surely try and negotiate a more reasonable see for the Italian international in the coming months.
