Inter Milan have reportedly informed Barcelona that the asking price for Lautaro Martinez is €90m (£83m).
The Catalan giants have been strongly linked with a move for the 23-year-old in recent months, although the financial impact of the coronavirus outbreak has made a deal more difficult for Ronald Koeman's side.
According to Marca, Barca remain locked in talks with Inter over a potential deal for the Argentina international, who is valued by his Italian club at €90m (£83m).
The South American, who still has three years left to run on his contract at San Siro, has scored 30 times and registered eight assists in 84 appearances for Inter in all competitions.
Manchester City are also believed to be long-term admirers of the centre-forward as they prepare for life after Sergio Aguero, with the 32-year-old potentially moving on next summer.
Barca are thought to be keen to discuss a swap deal with Inter for Martinez, who is seemingly viewed as the ideal long-term replacement for alleged Juventus target Luis Suarez.
Manchester United closing in on a deal for Alex Telles?

Manchester United are reportedly in a strong position to sign Porto defender Alex Telles.
A new left-back is thought to be on the agenda for the Red Devils during this summer's transfer window, and Real Madrid's Sergio Reguilon has been linked with a move to Old Trafford.
Telles has been mentioned as a possible target for the 20-time English champions over the last few months, meanwhile, with the Brazil international impressing in Portugal last term.
The 27-year-old scored 13 times and provided 12 assists in 49 appearances at club level during the 2019-20 campaign, and a recent report claimed that his agent had travelled to England for talks with United.
According to A Bola, Wolverhampton Wanderers are interested in Telles, but United are at the head of the queue for the defender, who is 'close' to leaving his current club.
The South American has a €40m (£37m) release clause in his current deal - due to expire next summer - but is allegedly available for €30m (£28m) in the current market.
Chelsea were also said to be interested before signing Ben Chilwell from Leicester City.
