Udinese’s Oumar Solet desperate for Inter move despite legal trouble | OneFootball

Udinese’s Oumar Solet has become a vital part of the side for the Friulians in the last year and a half. Inter are interested in him and it seems like the player is keen to reject other moves to join the Nerazzurri.

The defender has impressed quite a bit while plying his trade as a ball-playing centre-back, featuring regularly this season.

SportItalia report that the Nerazzurri are keeping a close eye on him even now. There is rising interest from Premier League clubs and Ligue 1 sides in the centre-back, who is currently only interested in joining Inter. In fact, he is also ready to wait for Cristian Chivu’s side.

Inter have actually been monitoring the player for a year now, with him joining Udinese on a free transfer in January 2025. As of now, he is still viewed as the ideal candidate to bolster their backline, with Stefan De Vrij and Francesco Acerbi likely to leave.

As appealing as a move for Solet would be, he has a legal case which has dragged on. He brings that black cloud with him, pretty much everywhere he goes and that will also stand true for Inter. Because of that, Chivu’s side might consider looking at other players and staying away from controversy.
