Atleast, this is what 'TuttoSport' states. Inter, faced with the possibility of signing Rakitic or Matip, but not both, would choose the United player rather than the Barcelona one.
In fact, the same media claims that even Arturo Vidal would be ahead of Rakitic on Inter's list of priorities. The Chilean would be one of Antonio Conte's requests.
Rakitic, who has moved to a second place in Barcelona, seems to have his hours counted in the club, but it seems less and less likely that his next destination will be Inter Milan.
