Inter Milan are in ‘trouble’ after Liverpool emerged as a contender to sign Barcelona’s Franck Kessié, according to InterLive.it.
Having confirmed the departures of three midfielders, the Reds will have to bolster the position in the next window.
This is where the 26-year-old would fit in for Liverpool, and he’s also wanted by the Serie A side in the summer.
Like the Merseyside club, the Nerazzurri are looking for a new midfielder in the market. They like the Ivory Coast international, who has already had a successful spell in Italy with AC Milan.
Barca have their eyes on Inter’s Marcelo Brozović and there’s been a lot of talk about a potential exchange involving the Croatian and Kessié. Simone Inzaghi’s side are said to be facing a lot of competition, including from Liverpool, to sign the latter.
Jürgen Klopp’s side could table an offer of €35-40m for the Barca player. If they make a bid in this region, the Reds are likely to emerge victorious because the La Liga side need to raise funds to improve their economic situation.
It’s stated Liverpool’s ‘blitz with cash offer’ to sign Kessié could ‘kill’ Inter because earning money would be more advantageous for Barca than a potential swap deal.
