Man United preparing huge €75m bid to sign 27-year old Serie A Midfield maestro -Report
According to reports, Manchester United is prepared to offer Serie A club Inter Milan €75 million for the 27-year-old Italian midfielder Nicolo Barella.
Manchester United is reportedly interested in Nicolo Barella, according to a report by the Italian publication Inter Live.
Next year, the Red Devils are prepared to spend a lot of money to acquire the Inter Milan midfielder.
They have prepared an offer of €75 million to sign the 27-year-old, who will be paid €10 million annually by the Premier League’s biggest teams under a lucrative contract.
The exponential ascent of Nicolo Barella Since making his way into the Cagliari Calcio first team, Nicolo Barella has established himself as one of the top midfield players in Serie A.
A native of Cagliari, he spent his formative years in his homeland and graduated from the youth division at Cagliari Calcio. However, he has seen his stock skyrocket since joining Inter Milan.
The Nerazzurri initially signed the 27-year-old on a loan deal in July 2019 before completing a permanent transfer 12 months later.
Barella has gone from strength to strength in the last half a decade at San Siro, turning out nearly 250 times thus far for Inter Milan while chipping in with 23 goals and 52 assists.
The Italian international has been instrumental in Inter Milan and Italy winning trophies in the last few years, including two Serie A titles and UEFA Euro 2020.
Meanwhile, Nicolo Barella’s exploits for his club and country have not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe, including Manchester United.
Premier League move on the horizon?
Nicolo Barella has been on Manchester United’s radar for a long time. The Red Devils want to transform their midfield department and become a winning machine, with the Inter Milan mainstay emerging as a viable target. With Frenkie de Jong not an approachable target for Manchester United, Barella is a handy alternative.
The Italian midfielder has the qualities to fit seamlessly alongside Kobbie Mainoo and Manuel Ugarte. The Red Devils are ready to break the bank to sign the Inter Milan midfielder by offering a bid worth €75 million to the Serie A champions.
In addition, Manchester United will offer a lucrative contract with €10 million-a-year wages to Barella. So, it will be interesting to see if the two proposals convince Inter Milan and turn the 27-year-old midfielder’s head next year
