Last Word on Football\u2019s\u00a0Football Transfer News<\/a>\u00a0looks at the latest transfer rumours from around world football. In today\u2019s edition, Inter Milan and Roma fight over Nicolo Barella<\/a>, and more Mauro Icardi<\/a> news.<\/p>\n

European Transfer Rumours<\/h1>\n

Nicolo Barella Transfer Rumours<\/h2>\n

Italian international Nicolo Barella is one of the most highly coveted midfielders on the market.\u00a0 The 22-year-old has been outstanding for Cagliari these last few seasons and it is time for him to move on to a bigger club.\u00a0 His suitors are Roma and Inter Milan and Cagliari has already pitted them against each other.<\/p>\n

Inter had been the favourite to sign Barella for some time.\u00a0 They have had an agreement with Barella on a contract, per Fabrizio Romano.<\/a>\u00a0However, with Cagliari going into their centenary season, Cagliari President Tommaso Giulini is looking for a haul.\u00a0 The haul he wants is much closer to\u00a0\u20ac50 million than Inter Milan’s valuation of roughly\u00a0\u20ac35 million.<\/p>\n

The stalemate has allowed Roma to step into the void offering a cash plus Gregoire Defrel<\/a> package that has Cagliari interested.\u00a0 It’s a deal that Cagliari are interested in, they can always use more quality players, but Barella and his team are keen to give Inter Milan every opportunity to come to an agreement for his transfer.<\/p>\n

Strikers on the Move<\/h2>\n

Speaking of Inter Milan, they are at the centre of the wildest section of the market; the market for strikers.\u00a0 Inter is in the process of making a deal for Manchester United<\/a> striker Romelu Lukaku<\/a>.\u00a0 First, though, they have to get rid of their own top quality finisher Mauro Icardi<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Argentine does not want to leave Italy at all.\u00a0 Franco Vanni’s report for La Republica<\/a> suggests that he would rather stay and see out his contract than leave the country. He is specifically looking for a move to Juventus, but that will take some incredible gymnastics.\u00a0 First Juve would have to find a buyer for fellow Argentine Gonzalo Higuain<\/a>, and the players’ brother has already ruled out a rumoured move to Roma.<\/p>\n

However, there are transfer rumours pointing to Higuain could still have a way out of Juventus.<\/a>\u00a0Goal in Italy<\/a> is reporting that Diego Simeone has interest in bringing his countryman to Atletico Madrid.\u00a0 Any move would hinge on Atletico’s inability to come to an agreement with Chelsea<\/a> over Alvaro Morata<\/a>.<\/p>\n
