Inter Milan Identify Netherlands Defender For Exit As Contract Runs Down And Star Struggles For Minutes | OneFootball

Inter Milan’s January plans may not be limited to Davide Frattesi, with Stefan de Vrij also emerging as a possible departure amid growing uncertainty over his role.

Italian media report that the Dutch defender is among the players dissatisfied with his current level of involvement.

Therefore, he could push for a move.

According to Tuttosport, De Vrij’s situation is part of a wider internal picture that could become increasingly fluid in the coming weeks.

With his contract running down and competition in defence intensifying, the centre-back has struggled to secure consistent minutes, prompting reflections on his future.

“The situation could change because of internal dynamics,” the report explains.

Indeed noting that players such as De Vrij and Frattesi “could push for alternative solutions.”

Any exits, Tuttosport adds, would inevitably have a knock-on effect on Inter’s incoming strategy.

Therefore reshaping priorities and timelines in the market.

From the club’s perspective, a January sale could represent a pragmatic decision.

Allowing De Vrij to leave before the end of his contract would generate some funds.

Therefore avoiding losing him on a free transfer in the summer.
