Barca eye Skriniar and Koulibaly

By Football Italia staff

Barcelona are looking towards Serie A to reinforce their defence with Inter’s Milan Skriniar or Kalidou Koulibaly of Napoli.

According to Mundo Deportivo, the Blaugrana and their technical director Robert Fernandez are keeping a close eye on centre-backs impressing in Italy.

The Spanish paper suggests Inter’s Skriniar and Senegal international Koulibaly have caught the attention of the Catalans.

Inter only signed Skriniar from Sampdoria over the summer for €23m plus €2m bonuses, but his price-tag has surged thanks to performances in Serie A this season.

He has even scored two goals in 11 games for the Nerazzurri.

Koulibaly has already been attracting interest from the Premier League, as Chelsea, Manchester City and Arsenal all wanted the Napoli star.

Mundo Deportivo claim Barcelona are also viewing RB Leipzig talent Dayot Upamecano.
