supporters are protesting against their club’s owner, after hearing they could sell £77m man to Liverpool

Inter Milan fans are protesting the possible sale of suspected Liverpool target Nicolo Barella this summer.

Barella is seen as a potential player who could be of interest to Liverpool as they look to transform their midfield.

In fact, a Calciomercato report today names the Reds as one of the clubs hoping to land the 26-year-old in the Premier League.

Although it seems unlikely, the report claims that Inter owner Steven Zhang will indeed sell Barella for the right price.

Zhang’s position is said to be very clear – Barella can leave if an offer of around £68-77m arrives. Newcastle United, Liverpool and Chelsea would have “thought” about this idea.

However, in a follow-up article, Calciomercato report that this news was not well received by the fans. No way.

They include an Instagram message from the group Inter Ultra 19 times, sent by Campione d’Italia this afternoon. “Interista born, present and future.

Untouchable,” the support group’s post read, along with a photo of Barella.
The post is said to be in direct response to owner Zhang; a shameless message that problems could arise if the Italy international is sold.

Inter fans express anger at Barella

It is possible that the message from the fans will dissuade Zhang from his relationship with Barella.

Indeed, supporter groups are more powerful in Italy than in England and should not be taken lightly.

However, Interisti took a similar stance when it looked like star striker Romelu Lukaku could be sold in 2021. Ultimately, a great offer from Chelsea proved too good for Zhang to turn down.

If the money is right, it seems unlikely that Inter are not at least open to the idea of ​​selling Barella.

What may prove to be a bigger obstacle is the player himself. Transfer market reports that the 26-year-old has always maintained that he is not interested in a move to the Premier League.

It is argued that this could change if a big offer lands on his lap. But the clear conclusion – as Fabrizio Romano repeats today – is that Barella is happy where he is.

However, that won’t stop English clubs from at least trying. Romano threw the Liverpool hat into the ring today and it’s a very exciting prospect indeed

This might upset fans at his current club, but we don’t think this problem will go away anytime soon.
