The Spanish journalist Matteo Moretto revealed significant developments in Barcelona's negotiations to sign Inter Milan defender Alessandro Bastoni during the upcoming transfer window.

Morito confirmed that Barcelona has already reached a preliminary agreement with the Italian player's representatives regarding the personal terms of the contract, in a move that reflects the Catalan club's desire to finalize the deal early.

The source clarified that the deal is still far off, as the Catalan club has not yet reached an agreement with Inter on the value of the deal, noting that the Italian club will not easily let go of its defender.

Barcelona plans to make an offer of around 50 million euros, in addition to including one or more players in the deal, to persuade Inter to part with their defender. Hector Fort is one of the names that interests Inter Milan and may be included in the deal as part of the potential agreement.

These moves come as part of Barcelona's efforts to strengthen its defense line with strong players in preparation for the upcoming season.
