Real Madrid have not yet closed the summer transfer window and are continuing to carefully analyze possible moves to strengthen the squad. According to reports from DefensaCentral, new coach Xabi Alonso sees strengthening the midfield as a priority and has specifically requested the transfer of Nicolò Barella from Inter.
The Italian midfielder fits perfectly with the playing philosophy that Xabi Alonso wants to implement at the Santiago Bernabéu. Barella is known for his technical quality, vision on the pitch and ability to dictate the pace of matches – elements that are currently missing from the Madrid midfield.
On the other hand, Inter are willing to negotiate, as the Italian club needs to raise funds this summer. Barella's value has been set at between 60 and 65 million euros, a price that is considered high, but reasonable for a footballer with experience and high international level. However, Real's management will try to lower the figure, as they have done in the past.
Xabi Alonso wants to have all the necessary players available before the start of the season, with preparations starting on August 4. Barella is seen as the final link in the midfield to complete the project that aims to fight for all the trophies.
Real Madrid is carefully considering this operation, while fans eagerly await another big name in the "white house".
