Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio was at Camp Nou last night, reportedly to meet with Manchester City over Yaya Toure and Stevan Jovetic.

Both players have been heavily linked with the Nerazzurri, with the latter having reportedly agreed in principle to move to San Siro this summer.

Toure, meanwhile, is a long-term target of Coach Roberto Mancini, who is known to be pushing the Beneamata hierarchy to bring the Ivorian to Serie A.

Corriere dello Sport states that Ausilio was at Camp Nou for last night’s Champions Leauge Last 16 tie between Barcelona and the English champions, which the home side won 1-0.

The newspaper reports that the director had some contact with the Manchester City directors, and more in-depth discussions are planned over the next few months.

One potential barrier to any deals would be the looming Financial Fair Play sanctions, with Inter expected to be fined and have limitations imposed on their squad.

Therefore, concludes the sports daily, Ausilio cannot yet enter into serious talks over the two players, and will instead wait for the FFP verdict.
