Liverpool Keeping Tabs on 26-Year-Old Champions League Finalist
Key Highlights :

Liverpool are reportedly keeping tabs on the Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella, according to Fabrizio Romano. The 26-year-old is an important player for the Italian outfit and is likely to demand a premium for his services. Liverpool are said to be monitoring his situation, but the rumoured £50 million pricetag may be too steep for the Merseyside club.
Barella is an experienced player who has competed at the highest level. He was a key member of the Italy squad that won the European Championships in 2016 and he played a major role in Inter Milan's run to the UEFA Champions League final last season. He has the technical ability and creativity to make an impact at the highest level and Liverpool would be wise to consider making a move for him.
The Reds have had a disappointing season and have missed out on Champions League qualification. They need to add quality in the middle of the park if they are to compete with the best in Europe and Barella could certainly help them do that. He has the experience and quality to improve the side and help them get back to the level they were at in recent seasons.
Barella has been linked with a number of other clubs as well and it will be interesting to see if he ends up leaving Inter Milan this summer. Liverpool will have to pay a premium for his services, but he could be the missing piece in Jurgen Klopp's jigsaw. He would certainly add control, technical ability and creativity in the middle of the park and could help the Reds compete for the league title and the Champions League.
