Barcelona Pursues Inter Milan Defender Alessandro Bastoni
Barcelona has expressed strong interest in Inter Milan defender Alessandro Bastoni, according to a report by Futboll Gazeta Express published on April 17, 2026, at 22:12. The move comes as part of the club’s strategy to bolster its defensive capabilities following a season marked by conceding goals in every match of the Champions League. Inter Milan currently values Bastoni at approximately 60 to 80 million euros.
Barcelona is exploring options to reduce the transfer fee, primarily through a “player plus cash” arrangement. Several Barcelona players have been identified as potential components of this deal, including midfielder Dani Olmo and forward Ferran Torres. Furthermore, sources indicate Barcelona is willing to incorporate its recently acquired right-back, Hector Fort, into the proposed exchange.
Inter Milan has reportedly monitored Bastoni, a 19-year-old, for an extended period and holds a high regard for his potential. The acquisition represents Barcelona’s continued efforts to reinforce its squad and address defensive vulnerabilities. The club remains focused on negotiating a favorable outcome with Inter Milan regarding this key player.
