Inter Milan chief Ausilio admits interest for Barcelona winger Deulofeu; talks Icardi rumours

Inter Milan chief Piero Ausilio admits they're interested in Barcelona winger Gerard Deulofeu.

Barcelona are prepared to release winger Deulofeu, who impressed last season on loan at Milan, with Napoli also interested.

“There have been no formal offers for Deulofeu, but we are paying attention to the situation.

"If there are the conditions to try something, we know the characteristics we are looking for. Deulofeu could be the right profile, but he isn't the only one," Ausilio told Mediaset Premium.

Ausilio was asked about Mauro Icardi's release clause and Real Madrid potentially paying it next summer.

“We are not worried. Aside from the fact there is a clause that is valid for abroad until July, Mauro and we want to stay together and achieve our objectives.

“I won't exclude that, without any appointments set right now because he has a very long contract, we could in future sit down and talk about something different."
