Both he and Zinedine Zidane share the same aversion to continuing their working relationship. Now Ceballos, a 22-year-old who joined Real Madrid two years ago, seems set for an exit from Madrid.<\/p>\n<p>The Spanish midfielder is currently at the European U21 Championship. A good performance in Italy with the national side could see his transfer fee skyrocket, though. The Rossoneri are said to have a limited transfer kitty and may be priced out of a move the six-time Spanish international. He seems destined to leave, whether or not Milan is his destination remains to be seen.<\/p>\n<h2>Barcelona&#8217;s Willian Bid Rebuffed<\/h2>\n<p>Sources at <a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2019\/06\/17\/chelsea-respond-barcelona-atletico-madrids-35m-bids-willian-9990902\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Metro<\/a> understand that<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/clubs\/chelsea\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Chelsea<\/a> have rejected two \u00a335 million bids for Willian. Barcelona and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/tag\/atletico-madrid\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Atl\u00e9tico Madrid<\/a> are both eyeing up the Brazilian winger, whose contract is up at the end of the coming season. Barcelona made a bid for him last summer, and have returned again to try and land him. Chelsea, however, are keen to hold on to him, with their transfer ban unlikely to be lifted.<\/p>\n<p>Willian, who joined Chelsea from Anzhi\u00a0Makhachkala in 2013, has made nearly 300 appearances for the Blues. During his time in London, he has won two\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/premier-league\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Premier League<\/a> titles, a Europe League title, an FA Cup and an EFL Cup. He is, though, reportedly keen to sign a new two-year contract to stay at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n<h2>Two In Potentially at San Siro<\/h2>\n<h3>Barella&#8217;s Inter Agreement<\/h3>\n<p>Fabrizio Romano of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.calciomercato.com\/en\/news\/exclusive-barella-inter-the-situation-and-the-truth-about-ac-mil-73667\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Calciomercato<\/a> reports that\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/6928979a\/Nicolo-Barella?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Nicol\u00f2 Barella<\/a> only has eyes on a move to Inter Milan. The Italian giants have lined up a five-year contract for the 22-year-old. With personal terms agreed, all that remains is the fee, with Inter not wanting to pay above\u00a0\u20ac35 million. The midfielder scored one goal and created four more in 38 appearances as his side Cagliari finished 15th in <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/serie-a\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Serie A<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>With AC Milan reportedly also interested, Cagliari owner Tommaso Giulini is holding out for nearer \u20ac50 million. Negotiations between the two clubs are the only hurdle remaining.<\/p>\n<h2>Lazaro Heading to Italy<\/h2>\n<p>Another player who could be joining Inter is <a href=\"https:\/\/fbref.com\/en\/players\/016ff750\/Valentino-Lazaro?utm_campaign=Linker&amp;utm_source=direct&amp;utm_medium=linker-\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Valentino Lazaro<\/a>, according to Carlo Angioni of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gazzetta.it\/Calcio\/Serie-A\/Inter\/18-06-2019\/lazaro-barella-conte-cerca-uomini-assist-l-inter-prepara-l-affondo-340164653516.shtml\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gazzetta dello Sport<\/a>.\u00a0The Austrian, off the back of a season with <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/tag\/hertha-berlin\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Hertha Berlin<\/a>, scored three goals and contributed seven assists as his side finished 11th in the<a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonfootball.com\/category\/bundesliga\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"> Bundesliga<\/a>. The deal involves\u00a0\u20ac18 million upfront for the player, plus another\u00a0\u20ac2 million in bonuses.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/lwosonfootball.ms.lastwordonsports.com\/2019\/05\/29\/report-antonio-conte-becomes-new-inter-milan-manager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Incoming boss Antonio Conte<\/a> sees the Austrian as a perfect right wing-back for his 3-5-2 formation. Lazaro almost moved to Italy in 2012, when his mother pulled the plug, ending up in his transfer to Red Bull Salzburg. He is likely to be announced before Barella or any other signing.<\/p>\n<p>Main Photo<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"cGv74sY9QTJkIbkxYXJDCw\" class=\"gie-single\" style=\"color: #a7a7a7; text-decoration: none; font-weight: normal !important; border: none; display: inline-block;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.co.uk\/detail\/1150362586\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'cGv74sY9QTJkIbkxYXJDCw',sig:'XIJxFcSynDjfC5pVZrheclbhlzYt7znCLweEccxSUw8=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1150362586',caption: true ,tld:'co.uk',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last Word on Football&#8217;s Football Transfer News focuses on the latest transfer rumours from world football.
