According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Serie A club have rejected the bid for the 23-year-old Slovakia international as being insufficient.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Barcelona have made a move for 23-year-old Slovakia international Milan Skriniar, who is on the agenda of several European heavyweights including Manchester City.
The Italian daily reports that Inter have received an offer of 50 million euros for the central defender and although the Serie A club have not confirmed from where the bid materialised La Gazzetta have stated that the Camp Nou board were behind it.
Skriniar: "My objective is to play in the Champions League with Inter"
When asked recently about his future, Skriniar said it depended in large part on where Inter finish up in the Serie A table this season: “My objective is to play in the Champions League with Inter,” he replied. On Sunday, Inter face what is essentially a playoff for a place at Europe’s top table next season against Lazio, who currently occupy fourth in the table. To reach the Champions League, Inter must beat the Rome-based side in the Stadio Olimpico.
Skriniar has been linked with a move to LaLiga previously, with both Real Madrid and Atlético having been credited with an interest in a player who cost Inter 23 million euros when he signed from Sampdoria last summer.

I'd rather go for Alderwierald rather than Skriniar. Alderwierald has played for Atletico Madrid too so it won't be a problem for him settling down in La Liga. He's a proven player for 4-5 years now and he'd cost less while Skriniar is still young and needs to learn more and his fee is too high for a player who has shown his talent just for one season.

I don't know why going for skrinar is a bad thing if this is true in the first place. Those talking about Mina and Barcelona having seven defenders are obviously joking .Did you see what happened when we played our second and third defenders against levante? yeah I love mina a lot I hope he makes it at barce but he isnt ready now .I support loaning him to a team in LA liga to gain more experience. we can't rely on vermalen, his injury record doesn't allow speak well for him and he is prolly going to be sold .if indeed we are going after skrinar I don't think it's a bad move .He is slowly establishing himself as on of the best defenders in the seria A. The fact that two Madrid clubs and man city are after him speak volumes .. I don't like the board as much as anyone but I don't see what is wrong with this move . Umtiti wants to be paid as hish as pique and is holding the club at ransom. If they can't agree a deal that will help the club with him then he should be sold and let's focus our resource on busquet he is irreplaceable.

These club is becoming a joke under this administration everyday by day, and that's why winning the Champions league won't be anytime soon with these average and rurbish signings over the years is still what makes this team to on rely on Messi's magic to be able to win important matches snd when he fails yo deliver then nobody else can. USELESS BOARD MEMBERS.

when we didn't play Sergio bequsket we saw the result and mbtiti against lavante . people work hard behind the scenes for others to take the glory . granted Messi, Suarez, countiho are great players but these are the foundation upon Barça successes are built .the board should meet their demands . the 3rd and 4th should continue to understudy and giving more playing time to gain confidence . no Barça player presently is better aerially than Mina and non gives more on the pitch than vernamen

as a football fan I'd like to see Christian Eriksen in Barcelona than Griezmann. I know Griezmann is a top top player but his fee is in the excess of 100 million and his salary would acquire more of the revenue. while Eriksen is a damn good player too and his wages and transfer fee is less. Eriksen can play in a midfield 3 or right wing. his crosses are sublime. Griezmann and Messi are more or less same. Both are left footed and both like to cut inside from the wings and that will create a problem in the middle. so I don't think Griezmann fits Barcelona currently. Suarez is the numero uno striker.
