Inter Milan Face Competition From La Liga For Serie A Starlet As January Move Ruled Out | OneFootball

Inter Milan are closely monitoring Verona forward Giovane, but any move in January now seems unlikely.

According to transfer expert Matteo Moretto, Verona are determined to keep their promising striker until the end of the season, despite interest from clubs in Italy and Spain.

“Rumours linking Giovane with Inter keep getting stronger,” Moretto explained on YouTube, via FCInter1908.

“From what I understand, speaking directly with those involved, Verona don’t want to let him go in January. There are already clubs interested for January, but they will likely try to secure him for June instead. This will be a summer deal.”

Moretto highlighted that Inter’s interest is serious, with both coach Cristian Chivu and the club’s management impressed by Giovane’s pace, technical ability, and versatility in attack.

He added: “Inter are definitely a team to watch. Giovane isn’t just liked by Chivu, but also by the board. There are also other clubs in Spain keeping tabs on him, so we’ll see if any developments come from that.”

With Inter planning to reinforce their forward options, Giovane remains on their radar, but patience will be necessary.

Verona appear committed to keeping their talent through the season.

Therefore, the Nerazzurri may have to wait until the summer window to secure the Brazilian prospect.
