Barcelona is interested in signing Alessandro Bastoni, a centre-back from Inter Milan and the Italy national team.
Details: As reported by Fabrizio Romano, Barcelona’s management reached out to Bastoni’s team after Italy’s recent game against Bosnia and Herzegovina to express their ongoing interest. It’s worth noting that Bastoni received a red card in that match, which hurt Italy’s chances of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup.
Reports suggest that Barcelona and Bastoni’s representatives have made progress in negotiations regarding salary and contract length. Both sides have described the talks as “positive,” highlighting a strong rapport between the club and the player.
This season, the defender has participated in 35 games for Inter Milan, scoring 2 goals and providing 6 assists. His market value is estimated at €70 million according to Transfermarkt.
Reminder: Barcelona’s key midfielder was injured during the match against Atletico.
