Inter appealed by Sassuolo star Ismael Kone | OneFootball

Inter have identified Sassuolo midfielder Ismael Kone as a primary target for the future, with the club’s management increasingly impressed by his recent performances.

According to a report by L’Interista, the Canadian international was a specially observed during the recent match between the two sides. Despite the gap in the final scoreline, Kone’s display charmed the Nerazzurri hierarchy, who value his blend of solidity and explosiveness. He is viewed as a balanced, modern midfielder capable of both defensive work and finishing, having already netted four goals in the current campaign.

The report clarifies that Inter do not necessarily see Kone as an immediate starter for the first team. Instead, the club has a detailed growth plan in mind, viewing him as a player who can make a significant impact from the bench initially before eventually developing into a pillar of the starting eleven.

This interest in the Sassuolo man aligns with a broader strategy to lower the average age of the midfield while maintaining a high level of technical quality.
