Roma Stalwart Lands on Inter Busy Summer Agenda | OneFootball

Inter are looking to land the plane after getting back on track with two crucial victories and continue planning for the summer, which will be livelier than the last one. However, given their abrupt UEFA Champions League elimination, their budget won’t be large. Oaktree will grant €30/40M, and the rest will have to come from the sales, La Repubblica informs.

The Nerazzurri are on the verge of reaching a long-term agreement with coach Christian Chivu. They’ll move on from a few veterans and search for younger replacements. Guglielmo Vicario continues to be their main target for the goal, but everything is on hold for now, considering Tottenham’s precarious situation.

Inter have added Gianluca Mancini to their list of defensive targets. Adding an experienced player wouldn’t hurt, especially if they sold Alessandro Bastoni. He was close to renewing his contract with Roma, but they halted every negotiation to focus on their remaining matches. Oumar Solet and Tarik Muharemovic are squarely on their radar. The Nerazzurri will keep tabs on Nico Paz once Real Madrid bring him back, but his valuation will start from €50M.

As for the likely departures, they seem finally ready to facilitate Davide Frattesi’s exit and are open for business for Luis Henrique and Andy Diouf. Carlos Augusto asks for €4M per year to re-up and would like to feature more.

Our Take on Inter

The links to Mancini are likely just some maneuvering by his agents amid stalled talks, but it’d indeed be risky to go young with every addition. If true, there’ll be no room for big splurges with that budget, but they can rake in a lot of cash without hurting their XI.
