Recent weeks have seen Liverpool linked with a number of midfielders, including Italian international Nicolo Barella. The 26-year-old has been a key member of the Inter side that won the league title under Antonio Conte and is valued at €80 million (£71m). It is unlikely that the Reds will spend that kind of money on him, so they will have to convince Inter Milan to reduce their demands in order for any move to go through. If the asking price is lowered, Barella could prove to be a quality addition to the Liverpool midfield and the Italian international could benefit from working with a world-class coach like Jurgen Klopp.
In recent weeks, rumors of Nicolo Barella joining Liverpool have grown even stronger. Barella, a 26-year-old Italian international, is currently one of the key players in Inter Milan’s championship side under Antonio Conte. His demands, however, are set at €80 million (£71m). Liverpool wouldn’t normally spend that amount on a single player, so negotiations with Inter Milan will have to occur if the transfer is to go through.
Barella’s addition to Liverpool’s midfield could potentially be a great move for the team. His style of play and flexibility would add an extra dimension to the line-up, and the Reds could benefit from the Italian’s intricate passing and technical ability. He also has an impressive attacking threat which could cause opposition defences problems.
The move might also be beneficial for Barella himself. Young midfielders rarely get a chance to learn from a world-class coach like Jürgen Klopp. Being able to train and play under the German manager could potentially help him to further develop as a player.
At present, Barella’s transfer still remains uncertain. It all depends on how much Inter Milan reduce their demands and Liverpool’s willingness to cooperate. The Reds only have until the end of the transfer window to make a decision, but whatever their final decision, it could prove to be a valuable addition to the team and an amazing learning opportunity for Barella.
