Barcelona have reportedly begun talks with the agent of Inter Milan midfielder Stefano Sensi.

After moving to San Siro on loan from Sassuolo during the summer, Sensi has quickly established himself as a key player for Antonio Conte's side.

However, while the 24-year-old's performances will likely lead to Inter signing him on a permanent basis, Sensi is not short of interest from elsewhere.

Sport claims that the Italy international's representative Giuseppe Rico is holding talks with officials from the Catalan giants.

While no transfer could be completed before the end of the season, Barcelona are seemingly prepared to offer Inter an opportunity to make a quick profit on Sensi.

The Serie A title challengers have the option of signing Sensi for a fee in the region of €25m (£21.62m).
