Barcelona meeting for Skriniar

Mundo Deportivo claims Barcelona met with Inter defender Milan Skriniar’s agent to discuss a January transfer.

This is certainly not the first time the centre-back has been linked with a move away from San Siro, as Manchester United also showed a strong interest.

According to the Spanish paper, Barcelona are eager to step up the pressure following Samuel Umtiti’s injury.

Inter spent €27m to buy the Slovakia international from Sampdoria in 2017 and his price-tag has since soared.

Still only 23, he is under contract with the Nerazzurri until June 2022.

Barcelona will have another opportunity to speak with Skriniar, because they are in the same Champions League group as Inter.
