Manchester United have reportedly held 'interested phone calls' with Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella as Erik ten Hag lines up another summer target.
The 26-year-old, part of the Italy squad that won Euro 2020, has been integral to the Serie A giants since signing from Cagliari in 2020. He's since helped 'I Nerazzurri' to a League title and two Coppa Italia wins, and started their Champions League final defeat to Man City this month.
In normal circumstances, Inter would inevitably be reluctant to sell one of their star players. However, the club are currently besieged by financial problems, leaving coach Simone Inzaghi with the prospect of losing some key men.
