"Brescia" president: "Barcelona" offered 65 million euros for Tonali and two players" © JumpStory

"Brescia" team president Massimo Cellino, competing in the Serie A championship, stated that the most prominent club star has attracted interest from a whole bunch of European clubs. The most famous European clubs are interested in 20-year-old Sandro Tonali, who is compared to Andrea Pirlo in Italy. According to the "Brescia" president, the club had already received an offer from the "Barcelona" camp, but the Italians did not engage in negotiations.

"Even before the pandemic, 'Barcelona' approached us with a 65 million euro offer and wanted to include two interesting players in the negotiations, one of whom was a defender. Both players were worth 7.5 million euros each. The leaders of the Catalan club received a response that they did not like. And that response did not come from Tonali himself," said the "Brescia" leader.

According to him, S. Tonali's desire is to continue his career in Italy, although most likely not in the "Brescia" team. "The PSG president would like Tonali to come to Paris, he himself wrote that. The problem is that Tonali does not want to go to France. He prefers 'Inter' and 'Juventus' clubs. 'Napoli' president has already offered 40 million euros, 'Fiorentina' also promises to fight, but his fate is more or less clear," added M. Cellino.
