Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella could be available for around €75m (£66m) this summer, according to reports in the Italian media.
Liverpool have been linked with the Italian international in recent days, and fans on Twitter would very much back the Reds pursuing the player if he can be signed for the reported price:
We absolutely should buy him

As one supporter pointed out, Barella could be cheaper than Brighton pair Moises Caicedo and Alexis Mac Allister. The former is said to be worth in excess of £75m, and is believed to be a target for likes of Arsenal and Chelsea.
Mac Allister is also thought to be on the radar of the two London clubs, in addition to Manchester City, with the Argentinian international’s valuation reportedly around £70m.
In terms of Barella, a lot will depend on how desperate Inter are to sell due to financial pressures. He is one of their key players but if he can be signed for £66m, Liverpool should snap their hand off.
