Roma have bid accepted for Inter target; Nerazzurri must move now
Now, the pressure is on for Inter, as Cagliari have accepted an offer from AS Roma for the player, amounting to €35m plus the exchange of Gregoire Defrel, who spent last season on loan at Sampdoria to some success.
Cagliari value Barella at €50m and Inter are having a tough time reaching this valuation.
