La Liga giants FC Barcelona have reportedly made an attempt to land Brescia midfielder Sandro Tonali, who is one step away from joining AC Milan on a permanent basis, after spending a season-long loan spell with the Rossoneri during the previous campaign.
According to what was revealed by Diario Sport, the Catalan club's representatvies have inquired about the Italy under-21 international, 'but the economic situation made the operation totally impossible.'
The Blaugrana have had the name of Tonali figuring on their agenda for months, yet, they knew that Milan were the favorites on this transfer race, as reported by the same source.
