Inter are ready to consider selling defender Alessandro Bastoni during the summer transfer window, while interest from Barcelona is becoming increasingly concrete.
According to a report by La Gazzetta dello Sport , the player’s agent, Tullio Tinti, recently visited the offices of the neroli club to discuss his client’s future and the possibility of a transfer.
The Italian club has reportedly set a high price tag for the 26-year-old, worth between 70 and 80 million euros.
This figure could pose a setback for the Catalan club, considering the uncertainties related to Financial Fair Play (FFP) rules.
However, Barcelona are considering the possibility of including players in the deal to reduce the total cost of the transfer.
Bastoni is seen as Barcelona’s main target for strengthening the defensive department.
On the other hand, the player himself is aware of the continued interest from the Spanish club and considers a move to “Camp Nou” as the ideal next step in his career.
