Nicoló Barella

TBH I did not think that he played that well in the final against us but I guess it is tough to play against City. I just wonder if he is the correct profile because it seems to me he plays a deeper role than our regular 8s and rarely went into the box. I thought that we were looking for someone opperating closer to the striker like Olmo. But surely he has great quality.
 
While the money might not be an issue to pay him from Inter, the problem is to convince the player to leaving Italy. Italian player typically is harder wanting to move from outside their country and league.

Unless Inter tell him like AC Milan had done for Sandro Tonali that Inter have to sell him to our club to save their club financially then Nicolo have no other choice but to join us.

Well another way to look at it is that he could hang out with Tonali from time to time at Wetherspoons! They do a great price fish and chips with peas. Embrace and experience new culinary delights. Also don’t have to worry about forest fires, positives galore for him!
 
He would be incredible for us. I always advocated for Barela in case Bernardo left. With Bernardo staying but Kevin out for months, I think Barella would be the perfect world-class addition we need. I don't think we will be ever able to play Kevin as much as we used to. We have a lot of prospects, so what we really need is someone like Barella to make us immediately stronger, someone who can be relied upon even in the big games. As it stands, we are very thin in midfield as far as trusted options are concerned. Phil, Kovacic, and Rodri. That's it. We can't go into the season with just the 3 of them. Pep doesn't trust Kalvin. We need Bernardo for RW. Barella is the answer, IMO.
£70-80 million would do it I reckon.

Just hoping if we do get him, he is not one of those Italian player that can get homesick easily and wanting to move back to his country after only just one season playing.

We definitely need a player who can play deeper.
I think the reason Paqueta was so sought after is because he was a defensive and attacking midfielder option.

2 birds with 1 stone.
