Former Liverpool target Nicolo Barella is high on Newcastle's shopping list this summer as the Magpies prepare for a Champions League campaign.
Eddie Howe's side secured a top four finish last season, squeaking over the line despite winning just one of their last five games. They finished four points clear of Jurgen Klopp's Reds, who couldn't quite time a late-season run to perfection, and could now move for one man who has long been linked with an Anfield switch.
Italy international Barella was part of Inter's squad for the Champions League final, where they were narrowly beaten by Manchester City in Istanbul. Next season, though, he could find himself in the Premier League and with an opportunity to prove former Liverpool star Steven Gerrard right.
