Nicoló Barella

A top class player but he ain't Rodri. Probably more suited to replacing Bernardo in Central midfield. You need to win a lot of aerial duels as a DM in England and that's not Barella's game. Don't get me wrong though, I'd snap their hands off for 70 million he's quality and an absolute warrior would definitely improve us wherever he ends up playing. Get the feeling he is loyal to Inter though and won't leave unless forced out.

NOT for sale, according to Romano.

Paqueta and Barella not options. Seems like it’s Eze or nothing.

Feel like city will go with what they’ve got and look in January/summer again.

True but he's not even a similar sort of player. Shorter, more technical and better further up the pitch. Our Rodri replacement needs to be good in the air and able to stop counters and break up play.
 
The way he plays he was born to play for Pep and City but like has been said never a Rodri replacement. Still if he ever became available we need to be at the front of the queue.

We would be lucky to get him for £70mil. If they will take that we should stock up and add a few more in players in the summer window whether we get Wirtz and/or Musiala.

We ain't getting Barella guys.

Why would Inter Milan, Champions of Italy sell him half way through the season?

Come on now.

Money that's why!


Inter Milan's debt has been a concern for the club and its owners, and has led to a change in ownership:

















  • Debt amount
    As of June 30, 2023, Inter Milan's net financial debt was €437 million, the highest among Serie A clubs at the end of the 2022/23 season. The club's total debt has been estimated to be around $900 million.











  • Debt source
    Inter Milan's debt comes from a three-year loan taken out by the club's holding company, which expired on May 22, 2024. The loan was taken out shortly after Inter won its previous league title, and the club was already facing record losses due to the coronavirus pandemic.






  • New ownership
    US investment fund Oaktree Capital Management took control of Inter Milan after the club's previous owners, Suning International Holdings, defaulted on the loan. Oaktree is now the new owner of the club, and has said that its initial focus is on operational and financial stability
