Transfer News: Marotta has Liverpool and Tottenham target in his hand for Inter

Transfer News: Marotta has Liverpool and Tottenham target in his hand for Inter

Giuseppe Marotta is not yet officially the new CEO of Inter, but the winter transfer market is approaching and the former Juventus man is already starting to work together with Piero Ausilio to lay foundations for important ideas for the development of the Nerazzurri. And Nicolo Barella is one of the most discussed names and a top priority for Marotta.

If the arrival of Nainggolan at Inter has opened new channels of negotiations with agent Alessandro Beltrami, who is Barella's agent, then the arrival of Marotta has brought Inter even closer to president Giulini. The two directors, in fact, have repeatedly crossed paths on the market in the last two years and the relations between Juventus and Cagliari have improved.

According to Corriere dello Sport, Marotta has now returned to knock on the door of Giulini for Barella, trying to exploit the good relations and avoid the competition from clubs like Liverpool, Tottenham or Juventus.

This is an aspect that puts Inter in pole position. Barella is in Marotta's hands, but now the clubs will have to work extensively to find an agreement on the price. Barella is valued at 50 million for the Sardinian club and it will be difficult to get discounts. But the possibility of including some counterpart is also discussed.
