Report – Argentina Starlet On The Verge Of Joining Genoa On Loan From Inter Milan | OneFootball

Young attacking midfielder Valentin Carboni is reportedly on the verge of joining Genoa from Inter Milan this summer.

This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that the Nerazzurri will pay the Grifone a fee based on playing time.

At the moment, Valentin Carboni is a part of Inter’s senior squad.

The Argentine’s loan spell with Marseille last campaign ended prematurely. This following an ACL tear that he suffered during the autumn.

Carboni spent much of last season recovering from that injury.

And having fully healed from that devastating knee injury, Carboni was ready to travel to the United States for the Club World Cup this summer.

Carboni got his share of playing time for Inter Milan at the Club World Cup.

Most notably, the 20-year-old scored Inter’s stoppage time winner against Urawa Red Diamonds.

This summer, though, the priority has been to find Carboni a new club where he’d play regularly.

And it is Genoa who have stepped up to the fore to sign the 20-year-old.

Grifone coach Patrick Vieira is a big admirer of Carboni’s. He feels that the Argentine is the right player to inject some quality into the Ligurian team’s attack.

Therefore, Genoa have been pushing to sign Carboni on loan. And they are close to an agreement both with Inter and with the player.

Furthermore, reports the Gazzetta, Inter will pay a fee to Genoa based on the amount of playing time that Carboni receives next season. After all, their priority is for him to feature often so that he can develop.

According to the Gazzetta, Inter could pay Genoa up to €1 million if Carboni is a nailed-on starter next season.
