Barcelona have joined Lazio in the race to sign AC Milan defender Alessio Romagnoli during the next transfer window, a report from Sport claims.
The Blaugrana are likely to rebuild their squad ahead of next season and the main priority appears on strengthening the attack with Neymar and Lautaro Martinez earmarked as the prime targets.
However, according to Sport, it is suggested that the club could also sign a new centre-back and Milan’s Romagnoli has been identified as a suitable option to reinforce the heart of the defence.
It is added that the deal won’t remain straightforward for the Blaugrana as they may not be able to afford the asking price after sanctioning big-money deals for Neymar and Martinez.
