Inter Milan have slapped a huge price tag on Nicolo Barella in the aftermath of reported interest from Newcastle United.
The Italy international is happy at Inter Milan with the San Siro club denying that they'd received any offer for the midfielder this week. Since then the Serie A side have briefed media in Italy that they have no intention of selling Barella for anywhere close to the £50million price that Newcastle were understood to have enquired about through an intermediary.
But since then Inter have stated that even if they were to consider Barella's sale the bidding would have to start at £85.3million. The Inter news site Fcinternews say the paltry suggestion of £50million caused "uproar" at the Serie A club's training ground.
