Inter Milan 'preparing offer for Barcelona left-back Jordi Alba following Ashley Young's departure... with Serie A side set to discuss involving players in deal with LaLiga giants this summer'

Inter Milan are preparing an offer to try and sign Barcelona left-back Jordi Alba this summer, according to reports in Spain.

The Serie A giants have lost Ashley Young, who re-joined Aston Villa last week on a free transfer, while Aleksander Kolarov's deal is set to expire at the end of the month.

The Italian side's £250million loan from Oaktree Capital has boosted the finances and prevented the club from financial ruin but they still need to rise a further £87m from player sales and also impose a 20 per cent wage reduction among the first team squad.
