Roberto Mancini wants another player within the next five days; more specifically, he wants a striker. This according to the online edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport which also writes that they are closely following Ivan Perisic. The Croatian who plays for Wolfsburg has said yes to Inter and the two clubs have finally reached an agreement. The deal is a two-year loan for 2 million euros and an obligation to buy set at 13 million euros.

Why not gamble on Guidetti as Icardi-backup/second backup? Free, promising and a similar type as Icardi. Although might be a bit overrated(?)
Does it mean we’re close to Jovetic?He’s the only striker mentioned so far
I prefer him over salah. The trasnfer saga between him and fiorentina is so tiring. Moreover, Sala’s main attacking weapon is burst of speed which can be stopped by teams when time passes by. I doubt salah will be as good as he was last season.
It is absurd decision to sell Shaqiri. In my opinion he played well for last 6 month especially in EL faced Celtic. Shaqiri definetly more promising talent than joel obi and Botta and yet Mancini didn’t give him more chance to play. Just say last season he had physical condition that disturbed his form but for upcoming season he deserve to prove his quality.
I dont want inter that looks cool in any video/online games that we play..i just want we always win, fair and square, stumble a bit for a drama but rise again more stronger. I used to hate maurizio ganz, julio cruz, ze elias, burdisso, even palacio, but when they play wholeheartedly and bring joy, sometimes even happy tears for us, no more favouritism for me. Coach, director and manager knows best, and its never just not one man’s head..now mancini have deki alongside silvynho, previously we have cordoba, figo, mihajlovic as our 2nd in command, i trust them, though that not keep me to curse the when everything gone bad. This mercato shows ET ambition, ausilio and co done a good job in bringing champions/talents (that in line the head coach plan) while maintaining ffp bar, now its Mancini’s time to prove whether he is worth that awesome paycheck!
The inter formula ; loan with an obligation to buy in next 2-3 years. We have to pay al lot in the future. We better qualify for CL
Perisic is not a striker, he is a winger, so if Mancini wants a striker who can also play in the wing, the best choice is Gabbiadini. Just offer Guarin to Napoli and make that deal happen. Jovetic is an injury prone and I doubt his fitness/form/mentality to play in Serie A again. He is too overrated. Perisic is not a stiker. Salah – just forget him. We are just losing time linking to him. Fiorentina will keep him and he is not a striker too.
perisic can play as a striker too.. he is much better than gabbiadini..
No, I don’t think so. Perisic scored only 5 goals in 24 bundesliga games while Gabbiadini scored 15 goals in 33 serie-A games last season. Plus Gabbiadini is 2 year younger. Perisic+Kovacic+Brozovic? Is Inter look like a Croatian national team? No way
He can play as a ST and he has good heading ability as well.
“I know that Inter have set their sights on Perisic and they are not the only club to be tracking him,” Wolfsburg director of sport Klaus Allofs told Kicker.
“We have no intention of selling. Besides, I don’t think this move would be economically convenient for the Nerazzurri.”
Lamela for shaqiri we need 2 wings and at least one true striker
Lamela for Shaq is my dream too.
Well, I prefer Salah, Lamela and Jovetic than Perisic.. They know serie A very well. But, I don’t want Shaqiri leave for Lamela. If Shaq should go for Lamela, then I choose Perisic.
Just… just don’t sell shaq…
I agree. Inter fans should start a page for him or petition for him like what happened for Kovacic. I don’t want to see Shaq leaving either. I’d be highly disappointed if he isn’t giving a proper chance to prove himself.
sky says mancini told shaqiri, santon and vidic that they won’t have any space in the starting 11. inter can sell shaqiri for 17m and buy mertens and perisic while spending only 3m from it.
I get vidic. That’s understandable but why not Santon or shaq?
shaqiri and santon don’t fit mancini’s plans and they can get us big money with the recent reports
shaqiri=17m
santon=7m . and don’t forget the wages, i believe in mancini and i don’t think he should be pressured to play a player he doesn’t want.
Agree, should trust Mancini. , I don’t mind if Shaqiri for two good wingers. We need to qualify the CL Coming this season.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t we buy Shaqiri for 25? I agree with @disqus_sXC35QBWlY:disqus though, but I would love to see what Shaq can do over a full season in our shirt.
we bought him for 15m, it’s not just mancini it’s also ausilio and fassone who would like shaq to be sold. tbh him being sold for 17m and than inter spending 5m loans for perisic and jovetic. it’ll help financially since we spent alot of money this year.
If we be able to sell santon for 7m, that will be a bargain. Since we bought him for 2,7m, if I am not wrong.
4.7m actually, still a big profit.
I see.. Thanks for the correction mate. 🙂
Can’t choose two between Salah, Perisic and JoJo.
I think one of salah and perisic would be enough . We have shaq already .
but if there isn’t any financial problem why not get both 🙂
konoplyanka is a Sevilla player now
perisic is soooo overrated…his max price should be 8-9 mln euro everything more than that figure is madness!!!
He is a hard-worker who has A+ IQ. I really like him.
Overrated? Mmmkay.
i think the appropriate word here is “forward” because both salah and perisic are not strikers.
Perisic and Salah would be awesome. Kinda hoped we would get Jovetic, but it seems pointless if we sign the other two.
Mancini the dictator
