According to a report from an Milano based newspaper, La Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter Milan’s Sporting Director Piero Ausilio is also working on the renewal of the Brazilian central defender Joao Miranda’s contract, which is set to expire at the end of June 2019.
The Gazzetta reports that: “The ‘Nerazzurri’ have proposed to prolong the agreement of a further season, while the former Atletico Madrid defender would like to move the deadline to the end of June 2021. The discussions will continue in the coming weeks to find an agreement that will please the parties involved, but the risk of departure in the summer is imminent. Even so, Inter has already reinforced the defensive department by adding the Dutch international Stefan De Vrij and also tends to lower the average age of the squad.”
In conclusion, with Inter heading back into the Champions League, it would be a great move once again by Ausilio to secure Miranda until June 2021. There will be multiple options available to coach Luciano Spalletti for the back line as it will allow rotation and useful rest for others during the season.
