Piero Ausilio continues to be interested in Porto midfielder Fernando, according to Massimo Ugolini at Sky Sport 24.
“Fernando’s contract was set to expire in 2014 but he chose to extend it to show gratitude to Porto but still a farewell is possible. A potential problem is the agent’s high fee: numbers which are far to steep for Italian clubs, this without having mentioned any bonuses. Milan made an enquiry followed by Napoli shortly after. During the past two months Inter has been pressing hard for the player. The deal is alive.”
