Liverpool could reportedly battle bitter rivals Manchester United for the signature of Inter Milan midfielder Nicolo Barella.
The 23-year-old has been in strong form for Antonio Conte's side during the 2020-21 campaign, contributing four assists in nine appearances in all competitions.
Barella only joined Inter on a permanent deal during the recent transfer window, having spent the 2019-20 season on loan at San Siro from Cagliari.
Man United are believed to be interested in signing the Italy international, while Barcelona are said to be closely monitoring the midfielder's form.
According to FCInterNews, Liverpool are also admirers of the Italian and could be ready to rival United for his signature during next summer's transfer window.
Barella has a contract with I Nerazzurri until June 2024.
