Alfredo Pedullà, recognized expert on the transfer market, clarified the situation regarding defender Andrea Ranocchia: “Ranocchia has been in contact with Chelsea, or rather, Chelsea have been in contact with Ranocchia’s entourage, but it’s clear that the valuation will be lower than for Guarin.

No, Ranocchia should stay with Inter. Inter must not sell him. He is the only Italian, he has improved a lot this season. Don’t evaluate him in few games. Remember his superb defending skills this season. He is good in the air and he scores goals. What he needs is only coach’s confidence in him. That’s all. I think Rano will be the best central defender if WM uses 4-defender formation like: J.Zanetti-Ranocchia-Rolando-J.Jesus.
The thing is man, no one plays 4 defenders anymore and he’s apparently not fit for that. He has issues and if he is to be sold then I have no problem. Mazarin will keep playing 3 defender.
