As per today’s version of O Jogo (news image provided below), Inter are preparing for the exit of Barella as they are already looking at possible options to replace him.
The Portuguese news source have mentioned that the Serie A giants can offer a fee of 40 million euros to sign Otavio from FC Porto.
Even champions, Napoli, are interested in signing the Seleccao midfielder, whose current contract has a clause of 40 million euros.
O Jogo claim the exit clause will rise to 60 million euros on 15th July but Inter should not have to pay that much if they offload Barella soon. He is highly coveted by Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal
The Porto-based media outlet claim the Italian side are aiming to get a figure close to 120 million euros (£102million) to sell the 26-year-old star.
The value mentioned is way too high as compared to the one recently reported in the Italian media. On Tuesday, La Gazzetta Dello Sport revealed that Liverpool are favorites to sign the Azzurri midfielder, who is rated at 80 million euros (£68million)
