Gianluca Di Marzio confirmed Liverpool's interest in Nicolo Barella
Nicolo Barella has scored eight goals and has provided nine assists in 45 appearances for Inter Milan this season. His form has attracted Jurgen Klopp's side's interest.
Sky Italia journalist Gianluca Di Marzio confirmed that the Merseysiders will once again be keeping on eye on Barella as he faces AC Milan in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals on Wednesday, May 10. Di Marzio said (via TeamTalk):
“The other player is Nicolo Barella because I can say Liverpool is looking forward to him. They came here to see him face Lazio. I don’t know if thry will get him, I don’t know if Inter will sell him, but I can say it is one of the most interested clubs looking at Barella."
"It’s normal because Barella is the Italian guy with skills, with the mind, with technical ability, everything. He can play in every league.”
The Reds are keen on reinforcing their midfield in the summer. Hence, they are scouting the market and an in-form Barella has emerged as the club's top transfer target in the summer. The 26-year-old is contracted with Inter until the end of the 2025-26 season and has an estimated market value of €70 million.
