Barcelona are intensifying their plans to reinforce their defence, and Inter Milan centre-back Alessandro Bastoni is their priority target for the left-sided role. Barcelona believes the operation is progressing positively, particularly regarding the player’s stance, according to Mundo Deportivo. Following initial contacts with his entourage, Bastoni is open to joining Barcelona and is attracted by the sporting project and the chance to play a key role in a young squad. Sources within the club feel the situation with the player is under control. A full agreement has not been finalised, but there is growing confidence that the expectations of both parties are closely aligned. It is understood that Bastoni is prioritising a move to Barcelona and is not actively considering offers from other clubs at this time. The club believes Inter Milan’s current situation might force them to make a significant sale this summer, with Bastoni viewed as one of the most valuable assets who could generate funds. These factors could create an opportunity for Barcelona to negotiate a transfer for between €55 and €60 million. The Spanish side considers this figure achievable. At Inter, Bastoni currently earns approximately €5.5 million per year, and a proposed renewal would increase that amount. It is believed that Barcelona is ready to offer improved terms, and the deal is considered feasible if the club returns to the 1:1 spending rule. Negotiations are ongoing and a final agreement has not been reached, but the operation is progressing as planned ahead of the summer.
