Barcelona are launching a bid for Inter Milan goalkeeper Samir Handanovic.
Barca are preparing to lose Victor Valdes this summer, with negotiations involving AS Monaco now at an advanced stage.
Gazzetta dello Sport says Barca have tabled a €23 million bid for Handanovic, who they want in place before giving the green light to Valdes to sign for Monaco.
Inter president Massimo Moratti rates Handanovic at closer to €30 million. More talks are expected over the weekend between the two clubs.
