The other alternative is Vidal, who had already been very close to an Inter switch last season.

Unlike Rakitic, the Chilean is not considered a first choice and could be allowed to leave Camp Nou.

Barcelona still want to make a profit, so slapped a €25m price-tag on the man who turns 32 in May and already has history in Italy for Juventus.
