Report – Inter Milan Join Juventus & Napoli In The Race For Brighton & Hove Albion Midfielder | OneFootball

Inter Milan have reportedly joined Juventus and Napoli in targeting Brighton & Hove Albion midfielder Matt O’Riley.

This according to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews.

The Nerazzurri are targeting a player with significant physicality to bolster their midfield ranks.

This would be to facilitate the transition to a 3-4-2-1 formation under Cristian Chivu.

One player Inter have reportedly considered as a target is Mandela Keita. The Parma midfielder is a player who Chivu is familiar with.

However, the Corriere report, Keita lacks the technical ability in possession to make the jump to a club like Inter.

According to the Corriere dello Sport, though, a new name as emerged on Inter’s list.

The newspaper report that the Nerazzurri are eyeing up a possible deal for Brighton & Hove Albion’s Matt O’Riley.

Inter consider the 24-year-old to have a similar profile to that of Roma’s Manu Kone, another top target for them.

O’Riley only just joined Brighton last summer from Celtic.

The Danish international was on target from the penalty spot in Brighton’s Premier League opener against Fulham yesterday.

But according to the Corriere, there is interest in snatching O’Riley away from the Seagulls.

The newspaper names both Napoli and Juventus as suitors for the Dane. Then, Inter are also considering joining the race.

The Corriere note that Inter have around €40-45 million left to spend in the transfer market this summer. Furthermore, that amount could rise with the sales of players like Kristjan Asllani.
