Former Inter Milan Player Backs Sassuolo Talent As Replacement For Bastoni If Italian Joins Barcelona | OneFootball

Lele Adani has thrown his support behind Tarik Muharemovic as a potential Inter Milan signing, backing the Sassuolo defender as an ideal replacement should Alessandro Bastoni complete a move to Barcelona this summer.

The former Inter and Italy defender made the comments during the latest episode of Viva El Futbol, using the Bosnia vs Italy World Cup play-off as the context for a transfer observation that will resonate with Inter supporters.

“Muharemovic plays for Bosnia, a defender to bet on, and also for Inter should Bastoni leave,” Adani said, with quotes via FCInter1908.

“He would be excellent for playing in a back four.”

Adani: ‘Muharemovic Is Ideal For Inter If Bastoni Leaves’

The endorsement carries weight.

Adani knows exactly what Inter require in a centre-back and his assessment of Muharemovic aligns with the club’s own interest in the player.

Which has indeed been well documented.

The Sassuolo defender has impressed this season.

He earned his place in a Bosnia squad that pushed Italy hard to win the World Cup play-off.

His performances on the international stage will only have strengthened his profile in the eyes of the clubs tracking him.

Although Juventus hold a structural advantage through their sell-on clause from his previous time in Turin.

If Bastoni departs and funds are freed up, the pursuit could quickly become serious.
