Liverpool make tentative contact with Inter Milan midfielder Barella

Liverpool have made tentative enquiries after Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella.

Secured at Inter until 2024, the Nerazzurri are willing to up his terms given the impact he has made over the last two years with the Serie A title holders.

Barella's emergence has caught the attention of PSG sporting director Leonardo and Corriere dello Sport says he's been joined by Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.

Klopp is convinced by the talent and potential of the Italy Euro 2020 winner and the Reds have registered their interest with Barella's management team this season.

For their part, Inter are insisting they're no longer under pressure to sell their stars, though the financial situation of owners Suning remains a concern.
