Report – Inter Milan Put Hellas Verona Wingback At The Top Of January Wishlist | OneFootball

Hellas Verona star Rafik Belghali could reportedly join Inter Milan in January to replace the sidelined Denzel Dumfries.

According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the 23-year-old has climbed to the top of Inter’s shortlist.

Indeed, the versatile defender has gone from strength to strength since swapping KV Mechelen for Verona in the summer.

Belghali has collected 15 league appearances this season, netting two goals.

Therefore, he has become one of Verona’s most important first-team stars.

Currently away on international duty with Algeria, Belghali could miss a large chunk of the January fixtures due to the Africa Cup of Nations.

However, his involvement in the most prestigious African tournament may not deter Inter from pursuing his signature this winter.

Unlike other Nerazzurri targets, Belghali could be available for as low as €12 million.

On the other hand, Atalanta loanee Marco Palestra commands a massive €45 million price tag.
