According to what has been reported by Tuttosport, Inter are ready to offer Cagliari a deal which will meet their valuation of €45-50m for the midfielder. Inter will do this, as per Tuttosport, in the same style as their signing of Milan Skriniar from Sampdoria; when the Nerazzurri included departing youth player Caprari in the deal to sign the centre-back - to make up the rest of Skriniar's value. Therefore, Inter are expected to try a similar ploy here in their attempts to snap up Barella for another club gets there first.
