Report – Barcelona Valuation Of Italy Superstar Falls Well Short Of Inter Milan Asking Price | OneFootball

Barcelona will likely have to go to great lengths if they are to secure the services of Inter Milan defender Alessandro Bastoni this summer.

According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, Los Blaugranas’ valuation of the 26-year-old comes nowhere near Inter’s asking price.

Despite putting Bastoni at the top of their shopping list, the Spaniards have no intention of matching the player’s €70 million price tag.

Instead, they were hoping to take advantage of the Italian center-back’s recent issues to negotiate a lower fee with Inter.

Meanwhile, the San Siro giants have every intention to keep their long-stalwart at the club beyond the summer.

Furthermore, they could soon open talks with the player’s agent over a potential contract renewal.

Barcelona & Inter Milan at Odds Over Alessandro Bastoni Valuation

With Alessandro Bastoni reluctant to push for a summer exit, Inter remain in a strong bargaining position.

As for Barcelona, they had hoped to close the deal at around €40 million.

However, it appears that Hansi Flick’s side can either improve their offer or walk away.

Still, things could still work in Barca’s favor, especially if Serie A fans continue to target Bastoni over his recent woes.
