Inter will not give up on Mohamed Salah and in the past 48 hours the contacts have been frequent again, just as in January. The Egyptian Chelsea player, on loan to Fiorentina, is a player Mancini likes a lot and would welcome him with open arms. But the road to Appiano Gentile is not as free from obstacles. First, there is the will of Della Valle, who intends to keep the former Basel player in Tuscany. For this Viola must pay 2 million Euros as agreed with the Blues to extend the loan next season.
The deciding factor, however, is the will of Salah himself: he’ll have the last word and he is not convinced of wanting to stay in Florence, as underlines by La Gazzetta dello Sport. “Fiorentina would like to the word given by Chelsea a fortnight ago, when the two clubs met in London to plan the future of Salah, to be kept. Viola reiterated that it was not going to pull out the remaining 16 million to buy him outright. Rather, the club was willing to pay half immediately and start a sort of co-ownership of the player with the Blues. In all this should not make attempts by other clubs to enter impossible. Tottenham, Atletico Madrid, Wolfsburg and Roma have also expressed interest in Salah several times. Teams playing the Champions League or the Europa League. Something Inter doesn’t, at least until Friday, pending the ruling on the position of UEFA regarding Sampdoria.”
Wednesday could be the decisive day, ie the one in which the Egyptian will communicate his final decision to Paulo Sousa. Mancini, meanwhile, remains convinced that he could have the fundamental players he has asked of Ausilio and is therefore continuing keep an eye on Cuadrado and Jovetic.
