Inter beat BVB to top target Khalaili, he heads to Milan | OneFootball

Borussia Dortmund have suffered a setback in their pursuit of Anan Khalaili. The Israel international will play for Inter Milan in the future. The Nerazzurri have secured the services of the attacking player from Union Saint-Gilloise.

As transfer expert Fabrizio Romano reports, the 21-year-old’s move to Milan is a done deal. Khalaili will join the Italian top club for a fixed fee of €25 million plus bonuses. The mandatory medical is set to take place within the next 48 hours.

BVB come away empty-handed

Borussia Dortmund were also among the clubs that had been closely monitoring the right winger. In the end, however, the Black and Yellows were unable to prevail against the competition.

In addition to Inter, Napoli, Como 1907, Everton, Aston Villa and Tottenham Hotspur also showed interest in the Israel international.

Khalaili was one of Union Saint-Gilloise’s most important players over the past two seasons. In 99 competitive appearances, the technically gifted attacking player recorded a total of 19 goal contributions and stood out with his pace and dribbling.

Inter respond to Dumfries departure

With this signing, Inter are responding to the departure of Denzel Dumfries, who has joined Real Madrid. Marco Palestra of Atalanta Bergamo had originally been considered the preferred solution, but he opted for a move to Chelsea instead.

Khalaili is now expected to fill the gap that has opened up on the right flank.

Borussia Dortmund could also have made good use of the attacking player. With Yan Couto apparently edging closer to a move to Como 1907, the club’s decision-makers, led by sporting director Ole Book, are looking for reinforcements on the right wing. With the Khalaili deal now off, the Black and Yellows must turn their attention to other candidates.
