Transfer BATTLE: Liverpool to rival Inter and AC Milan in pursuit of 20-year-old Italian starlet Nicolo Barella

Both Inter and AC Milan have set their sights on Liverpool target Nicolo Barella, according to reports.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp is a huge admirer of the 20-year-old Cagliari star and was in pursuit of the midfielder during the summer.

Barella stayed put but speculation regarding his future at the Serie A club will not go away.

And now, according to Calciomercato, both Milan clubs are set to rival Liverpool's pursuit of Barella in January.

The youngster has enjoyed a good start to the new season and was recently called up to the Italy national squad for the first time.
