With a contract expiring in 2021, Arturo Vidal could be living his final months at Barcelona.

The midfielder has reportedly been on the agenda of a few clubs in England and Italy, with Newcastle United being among them.

According to FcInterNews, the Magpies and Manchester United ‘requested more than information’ from the Chilean’s agent Fernando Felicevich.

The Catalan club is in contention to win the league and the Champions League this season. The 33-year-old wants to focus on the upcoming fixtures and take a decision on his future in August.

Despite Steve Bruce’s side and the Red Devils getting in touch with the representative, the South American ‘wants to wait for Inter’.

The Nerazzurri observers are paying attention as they believe his signing can be concluded for €7-8m and they’d offer him a two-year contract worth around €5m per season.

Vidal played under the orders of Antonio Conte at Juventus and the Italian coach is believed to be a great admirer of the player.

He believes it was the former Chelsea manager who turned him into a champion, which is why the Barca midfielder wants to finish his time at the highest level at San Siro.

Vidal is not short of offers, including those from Newcastle, Boca Juniors, MLS and Chinese clubs. However, his plan is to join Inter this summer.
