According to Mundo Deportivo, the Serie A side wanted to take Vidal on loan but Barcelona are only willing to listen to offers on a permanent basis.
According to the newspaper, Barcelona will only listen to offers that include a sale. "Vidal cost close to €20 million over a year ago and Barcelona need the funds to finance a Neymar deal," the papers stated.
Barcelona want to reinvest any money earned on a sale with €13 million left to amortize on the midfielder's purchase. The door is open for Vidal to leave but Barcelona want to sell him and not simply loan him out.
