Barcelona Forced To Offer Discounts On Inter Milan Transfer Target After Splashing The Cash On Spain EURO 2024 Hero

Barcelona might reportedly have to settle for low offers in their attempts to raise funds by selling Inter Milan transfer target Mikayil Faye.

The Nerazzurri need to sign a young left-footed defender and have been exploring their options on the market.

The Italian champions have recently stumbled upon Faye who has been developing his game in Catalunya.

The 20-year-old is a Senegal native who signed for the Blaugrana last summer following a brief experience in Croatia.

The young defender spent the previous campaign with the club’s developmental side Barca Atletic.

Faye has now earned a promotion to the first team, but is unlikely to dwell at the Camp Nou for too long.

According To El Gol Digital via FcInterNews, Barcelona are desperate to sell the young Senegalese as soon as possible.

The La Liga giants have recently spent 60 million euros to sign Dani Olmo from RB Leipzig. However, they haven’t been able to register the EURO 2024 as they must first make room on the squad list.

Barcelona Losing Leverage In Attempts To Sell Inter Milan Transfer Target Mikayil Faye

Barca value Faye at circa 20 million euros. However, none of the player’s suitors is willing to splash this sum at the moment.

Moreover, the youngster’s admirers realize that the Catalans are in a dire situation. Therefore, they could pounce on Barca’s desperation to secure the youngster on the cheap.

The 20-year-old Sedhiou native is tied to the Spanish club with a contract running until June 2027. He essentially plays as a central defender, but can also cover at left-back.

So it remains to be seen if this could encourage Inter to launch an onslaught. However, some sources claim the Nerazzurri’s interest in the player has waned in favor of Argentina U20 starlet Tomas Palacios.
