We now have a clearer image of what exactly happened between Inter and Cerci, and Milan and Atletico.
“In December the Nerazzurri set the agreement in principle with the class of ’87 winger,” reveals Panorama’s website. Inter “had accepted the proposal and was told Inter would be ready to take him to Appiano after the Christmas break. Inter would guarantee the same figures he received in La Liga, with a commitment to redeem him at the end of the season. The loan deal was however unwelcome at the top level of the Iberian club, who a week ago had bent before the pressure of Thohir and co. In Corso Vittorio Emanuele the player’s strong yes showed optimism in the feasibility of the deal.”
And so thought Mancini, but Galliani reached an agreement with the club first: “Adriano Galliani, in fact, in the last week wove the cloth with Atletico Madrid, finding agreement with the Madrid sporting director Andrea Berta to exchange loans lasting eighteen months with Fernando Torres. Milan must still talk to Cerci about the contract he will sign with the Diavoli, but it is most difficult from the Valmontonese winger to say no to the Rossoneri to wait for the Nerazzurri. Moreover, there are no certainties from Inter’s side.”
This is why Ausilio jumped for Podolski. To appease the wrath of Mancini. He was also made to look like a “fool,’ reports the web portal. The Nerazzurri are now moving to please the coach, and are only just starting with the German.

Any surprising bits in the new details? Are you happy with Ausilio? How about with our replacement for Cerci?

Let Ausilio do his work calmly for God’s sake
both of them are shit including salah overrated players . i would be happy if we got konoplayanka and zakaria bakkalli talented players and a playmaker like gaston ramirez. i know podolski and cerci very well and salah, they need good players to function they cant take on players the only thing is running and seria a is tactical league get alvares back instead, if we cant afford good players.
Cerci overrated, Ausilio underrated! Don’t let this medias*** to get into your minds. Anyone sayig that Ausilio sucks must realize the difficult circumstances where he has to work. It’s not easy to make deals when you basically have no money. And let’s face it. Not too many of our players are that HOT in the market right now.
Ausilio is just another bad apple and need to be fired on how the things he deals with. INTER is not just a club, Its the CLUB. we fans don’t want the Club to be push aside in transfer dealings and look like a fool. If CERCI is the target, then GET him at all cost. If not just say YOURE NOT INTERESTED. I got sicked whenever Inter does transfer dealings these days.. first they got rid Sniejder, Thiaggo Motta, Samuel, Cambiasso, Milito! then they failed to buyout Rolando, which was ONE of the best performing players back then post-Treble era! Inter cannot change the whole team in one go! what idiot would have ever purposed such plan in the first place? there is NO transitional period for an important club like Inter, but only growth and continuity. look how far Inter have gone spiraling down just barely few years on top of the world.
I don´t care anymore. I don´t think Podolski comes to Inter either
take cerci give them guarin/palacio, problem solved
Why cerci preferable is because he doesnt need more adaptation to serie A. Meanwhile podolski even cant speak italian and perhaps need much times as vidic to make actual impacts. This is january window, sudden impacts count
Cerci is Overrated i swear…Lets hope we get Podolski he is 10x better than Cerci
its not whose the best, its whose the suitable players that fits the tactical system. and Podolski is not a wide player. Cerci able to play both wide and as trequarista. If Podolski in, he would surely take the middle park or just behind the strikers, that that would meant push either Kovacic or Hernanes out. what Inter really needs is players capable of playing wide areas: and thats why Cerci is the better option than Podolski. Another player is M.Salah, but thats is another matter.
Cerci is just an overrated flop. Good job Ausilio. Period.
..
oooo Galiani where are yoouuuu
Cerci is simply the player the team needed, however let’s not forget podolski is German and he played alongside players who won the worldcup.. He has experience abroad and just needs the right motivation and guidance which I believe Mancini would provide… Look I know a lot might complain about why we didn’t get cerci but the bright side is we’re getting better and better in our signings and choosing players that could possibly thrive at this league.
our possible formation with the “almost” confirmed signings:
Handanovic
dambrossio rano jj dodo
Diarra medel
podolski hernanes kovacic
osvaldo
Palacio?Icardi?
I’m Basing on players form and ability but obviously if palacio finds his form then I would not mind him… Icardi is lethal in the box but he needs to be more mobile as osvaldo.
I prefer Podolski over Cerci any day Cerci had only one good season opposed to Podolski… oh reason he doesn’t start is cause Wenger is an idiot…
totaly agree with you
Totally agree with u. Cerci is fast and good player that i like a lot but Podolski is a champion who won everything. We still need one attacker and wing back or offensive winger to replace jonathan who we should sell bfore his contract expires june 2015
Kovacic as a winger, hell no
