Al Hilal prepare lucrative offer for Inter midfielder Nicolo Barella
Al Hilal have identified Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella as one of their marquee targets this summer.
La Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the Saudi giants are planning to offer the Italian international €35 million per year on a four-year deal, almost thrice the salary he currently earns at Inter.
However, Barella is not interested in the move and only wants to succeed with the Italian giants.
The 28-year-old has been an integral part of Inter since 2020, bagging 25 goals and 59 assists in 273 appearances.
Not only has he become one of the best midfielders in Serie A, but Barella has also developed into one of the finest players in Europe with his top-quality performances for club and country.
The 2020 Euro winner was instrumental behind Inter’s Scudetto triumphs in 2021 and 2024 and the runners-up finish in the 2022-23 Champions League.
He has also been in fine nick of form this season, helping Inter top the Serie A table and reach the quarter-finals of UCL and semi-finals of Coppa Italia.
Manager Simone Inzaghi also sees Barella as a pivotal figure for his project. The midfielder penned a contract extension until 2029 last year.
Meanwhile, Henrikh Mkhitaryan is facing a tentative future at San Siro, with his contract expiring in the summer.
The Nerazzurri are looking to bring in Como’s young Argentine sensation Nico Paz as a replacement for the Armenian midfielder.
The Italian giants have already secured the services of Croatian midfield talent Petar Sucic from Dinamo Zagreb for a reported fee of €16 million.
The 21-year-old will join the Nerazzurri in the summer.
Inter host Udinese in Serie A this weekend and have a great opportunity to extend their lead to six points at the top.
