Preparation under way in Brunico for Inter’s Mancini for the upcoming season and Di Marzio has reported the latest on Inters mercato. Xherdan Shaqiri has said yes to a move to Schalke 04 and will look to join the German side over the next couple of days with the negotiations close to completion. With this sale Inter will focus on Ivan Perisic, the first choice to replace the former Bayern Munich player. Ausilio will be in contact and try to close the deal with Wolfsburg in the next 24-48 hours for the arrival of the Croatian.

Good work Mancini I love your mentality of “it’s not my money so make sure you spend it all or else threaten the team by saying i’m going to quit if you don’t get him.” All this money spent just to make Europa league………….lol ……. now you understand why Juve was not interested in Shaqiri because he can’t cross or take corners ,
Pop the shampane.. we get rid of dump ass player like shaq w -5 iq for a profit of 2mil! Best winter buy since this shaq is clueless. Guaro is better! Alvarez was better! Ok he is better than ruben botta… shaq has strong shoot to kill birds. He is real bird killer. No accuracy no dribble skills. His only skill is sprint and hard short.. compare him to someone like Miccoli and its obvi Shaq is not a fuoriclasse.. he is avg dompass player who uses physique at 23 to have little impact. He will age like beer and mancio has the football brain genius… he knows this and wsnt to domp his ass
Stop fighting guys we are all one big Nerazzurri family
Good bye Xerdan Shaqiri.. 🙁
This is one player we shouldn’t get rid of. it doesn’t make sense to get rid of one winger and buy two rather than buying one. And it still doesn’t resolve the issue of to many players on the team. If we are going to get rid of him then we should wait until its confirmed we have Perisic or whoever before we let him go and don’t get anyone. Biabany would make a good backup but not a starter. Shaqiri and Perisic on the wings would be great and save more money than selling one and buying two.
Only thing that bothers me in this deal is the way we treat our players. Shaq never really lived up to the expectations (also sit alot on the bench, I don’t know why). He might be better next season but then again if someone needs to go and we can’t offload Guarin and co. then so be it.
PS: Let’s try and respect everyone’s opinion here. The idea here is to share thoughts and opinions not argue and disrespect one another. After all we are INTERNAZIONALE!
Thumbs up on the respect part. We don’t all have to agree on everything just because we are Interisti, but no need to disrespect others opposite opinions..
Yes people forget we are the class team in Italy/Europe… debating is what intellectuals do. Sad to see some interisti fling insults when someone doesn’t agree with them.. they are bringing themselves down to Juve class levels haha. Speaking of class Shaq didn’t have enough for us. Alvarez was a player who had was more class than Shaq yet everybody was quick to jump on the Ricky hate parade.
Debate! That’s the word I was seeking. 🙂
fellow interisti, I have started a football related youtube channel.

Thanks!
Just to put things into perspective, Andros Townsend is gonna be sold for 15 mil pounds, which is about 22 mil euros. Shaqiri leaving for less is an insult and disappointment for us fans.
Contrary to popular beliefs, I feel Shaqiri best position is as an attacking mid. He’s not very fast but he makes clever passes, great shots and always seems threatening, much like Hernanes. He’s much younger. Moreover, Shaqiri is more adept to playing on the wings than Hernanes. With all due respect to Hernanes, keeping Shaqiri seems like a better piece of business than keeping Hernanes. Hernanes is rather ineffective as a centre mid as well. I love Hernanes, but if we’re to sacrifice someone in this endeavour, Hernanes seems like a more logical choice. I don’t believe there are no clubs out there that will be interested if we put him on the market. He’s a very good player after all.
Hernanes is a very good example. Inter brought him in for ~20m and he didn’t deliver for quite some time. he started to show his worth and perform consistently in the 2nd half of last season – after all, Shaq chose Inter instead of money, that’s a rare thing in today’s football, he deserves a 2nd chance aswell
English players are overrated in Premier League. They are sold for big amount of money in domestic transfers. Thats how you keep the money in the country and prevent other clubs in europe profiting from huge transfer wages. The whole PL is a big commercial joke of a show. If we look at at technical aspects, then obviously are the spanish legaue, serie A and bundesliga above PL, espcially if you look at the performance of English teams last season in EL and CL.
It Seems
There were reports Zukanovič went to Sampdoria.
hopefully santon stays
I rather like Santon and I think he performed very well when he came back, considering he joined in January transfer window and was put into the starting XI ASAP. But then again, 12m for Kuzmanovič and Santon to Watsford sounded really nice, especially if we could sign a new fullback. TLDR: I would like him to stay but if he must go, make them pay and buy a new fullback.
Another bulshit from gipsy!
What is this dude? Are u insane or what? You dont have any right to offend anyone with a bad phrase, stop plz, seems u just want to start a less funny argument on every post
I love Mancini but I’m sad for Shaqiri. I had wish to see him at Inter for 2-3 years.

HAHAHA where are you ASSHOLE?
Fiorentina is trying to make Chelsea not sell Salah in Italy and that saga could go on for weeks, so I guess after selling Shaq and getting Perisic we’ll take Jovetic and focus on reducing the squad to 25 players. Vidic, Guarin, Nagatomo, Dodo and Ranocchia are the first that come to my mind. Also, I think we still have Mazzarri’s champion, Lord Johny 😀
also, Chelsea wants around 25m altogether for his one-trick pony, thats a definite no
Jonathan, just as Campagnaro, left as their contracts expired
i think with Shaq’s versatility he could be a good use for Inter next season, just sign Perisic and Salah, and then Inter can get a deadly trio who can back each other up.
Versatility? The guy cant play amf ss … he can only play rwf.. he plays at a different pace with regards to the rest of the team. 0 game reading ability… just head down running. We are lucky we are makung money. I respect you opinion but I feel too many overhyped Shaq because he is hyped in the media/fifa/cm… the guys is an average player with a good physique. He will not age well. Mancio thought he would become a sort of ruben sosa but the guy couldnt change his game
I don’t know why people are blind to see that he hasn’t developed as well as we all hoped. We have a whole bunch of Fifa managers here who think he’s an incredible player as fifa suggests. Wake up!
For me i just hope he got more chance, at least another year and i believe Mancio want to give him some chance too, but it’s just inevitable for him to leave..
If you can’t see shaq’s potential, I have nothing to say to you 🙂
Im sure he has potential. I dont know how long would it take to come out though. Some players just dont make it. (In general) I hope he stays and flourish with us than other teams. But who are we to judge him?
Well you’ve seen hernanes 🙂 the second half of this season has been his best and when did we buy him?
Definitely.. Its not easy to adjust right away. Lets hope for the best. Shaqiri might stay.. we never know 🙂
Remember when lazio sold their star, in early 2000? The lazio tifosi did protest to management, why we don’t?
If only guarin we protest, why not with Shaq??
Shaq > Guarin
But guarin is better than shaq. Watch the games. Be objective
not true. comparing 6 months Shaqiri with 3 years Guarin..
This isn’t middle school… true.. not true.. he pushed me.. he taddle tailed.. he ate my cookies..
Let’s approach this matter in an objective scientific manner:
Guaro: runs and runs, fights to get the ball. He also was clutch for a good number of games this season. Guaro can use both feet and can both dribble and pick out a pass. Guaro can play in any position in midfield and attack. He does waste shots and has been inconsistent but on average he has been decent. His moment of brilliance have won games for us.
Shaq: can only sprint and hit the ball hard with his left foot. He failed at AMF and can only play as a winger… on top of that he’s a winger that can’t cross the ball. He made an impact for the first 2 games then by game 3 everybody figured his extremely limited playing style out.
So in summary:
Shaq’s football IQ makes Alvaro Perreira’s look like Cuchu’s. Better we sell him now then see him drop in value cutting lemons on the sidelines and stuffing his arse on the bench w kebops.
Limited player in the most tactically intelligent league.
Conclusion: He’s a nice guy and I want to see him happy in the Bundesliga/Premiership. Nothing personal Shaq and all Shaq lovers but if you can’t see it.. I can;t make you see it. Just like some people can’t tell the diff between a Chateau-neuf du pape and a ‘house’ red.
FORZA INTER!
You are entitled to protest. I am with you !
If Inter fans are smart they would shut their mouths and mind their own business because if your fans were smart you should have sold Guarin for Vucinic + 2 mill because nobody else was crazy enough to offer you 8 mill for the guy. I don’t recommend making the same mistake twice but then again, Marco Branca was employed for 12 years and they were full of mistakes but nobody cared anyways !
Thank you. Shaq is nothing special. Put down your controllers!
hahah. Spot on
I Be Like
nice. liking your own comments and posting nonsense. the true definition of a Troll.
i dont give a damn if he’s leaving.. it means nothing to the club. just save the money and take ibra.. i’m really really sure we will be watching inter play in CL next season and even scudetto this season, after that just sell him to MLS and we will got money to buy other good player. the most important thing is we come back to highest level wher inter belong to be. buy perisic, salah, jovetic wont help us.. agree?
Guys relax, give him some time and he’ll build a strong team. In case if you forgot, when he was in City he brought Zabaleta, Kompany, Toure, Silva and aguero and now they’re one of the best. Mancini knows what he wants and he’ll prove all haters wrong. Shaq was fit in the old formation with little time to play with it and now he has a full summer transfer window to play with it. Forza Inter! Haters can chock on Mancini’s dick when he wins the scudetto next season
you are disgrace for inter community!
Umm… why? Because his opinion is different?
no because of words he used to people who think differently from him!!! we are not robots , its not possible all inter community to think the same. he offend one big part of our community, we need to respect every persons’s opinion, no matter how crazy it is!
All he said was hypothetically that if mancio won the scudetto ‘haters’ will be the first people to praise him
And I’m pretty sure if mancini does win (which is near impossible) everyone will be all over him.
there is a group of people here who seem pretty hell bent on their opinions and forcefully try to enforce that. by any means. liking each others comments, posting meaningless “memes”, and using harsh language to sound superior. it’s becoming a very toxic community where i sometimes refrain from posting my opinion . SMH :S
Well I started visiting this site a year ago and it was never like this 😐
It seems like it’s becoming divided by mancio haters and mancio lovers…
yep :S, as the season progresses people will either become mancio haters or mancio lovers. i’m hoping for the latter. all for the sake of inter of course. amala.
I said haters, not people who have different opinions. Many people here are hating on Mancini and his plans because of one player that did not make any difference in Inter or in Bayern.
City got unlimited money, we are not.. We’ve got FFP sanctions, they are not.. Chelsea, psg, monaco, madrid, barca rarely failed about transfers whoever their coach are, right? Not that hard to build strong team with much money, just saying though.
Go easy with the swearing dude, we all in the same side here and as for ur information Silva, Toure and Aguero were already in the middle of the bests when he bought them, it’s not that he discovered him. That goes to almost every player he bought at City.
Even now, hes not discovering anyone, he just knows who we wants on his team, Jovetic and Perisic are good and he wants them because they are a good fit for his new formation
Haters will choke on mancinis chock. There fixed it for you. FORZA INTER.
with all the money spent at Man city on Zabaleta, Kompany, Toure, Silva and aguero did he do what Allegri was able to do with Juventus ? HECK NO !! just remember “the goal is Europa League”
you don’t make sense. how can you compare someone who’s been here for 4-5 years to someone who’s been here for 6 months looooool. plus the one childish idea you have there..
clearly ur an idiot or google translate failed u. he compared those playrs to shaq becus the club has given them lots of chances in the last 4-5 yrs (hence! 4-5 yrs of chances! and shaq only 6 months at the club received one chance) which means shaq deserves another chance they on the other hand dont anymore. We seen them fail ovr and over and they r rejecting offers that can help the club raise money and get rid of dead wood. Wake up Troll lmao
don’t reply to me again.
you have a very nonsensical point of view. plus that was a rhetorical question.
the only I thing i do not understand is if we sell him and buy perisic we will still be at 32 players. how does this help our situation. someone explain..
If we keep Shaq we got 33 plus lesser money.. We still need to sell some more players and we’ve tried that already, too bad Froggy, Vidic, Guarin, and Santon refused to move, we have to try harder selling some deadwood. I feel sorry for Shaq since his level and Perisic are just about the same in my eyes and i really do hope he’s got enough chance at Inter, but for him to leave is just inevitable.
Ranocchia didn’t refuse to move. There was no deal agreed to sell him with any club. And how is it too bad that Santon refused to move? He is awesome, we should rather sell Nagatomo, D’Ambrosio, Juan Jesus, get rid of Dodo.
I would keep D’ambrosio as Montoya sub
Ambrose is our weakest from that group. Dodo has the most potential and naga is just rediscovering his shape. Naga can be great when in shape. Santon has improved but is still weak in defense. Our prob is none of those can defend well unless we play jj chivu style but chivu had technique, passing range, positioning and a good cross. JJ shluld be loaned to genoa. Santon and dambrosio should be sold. Keep naga dodo and montoya and we are set. Rano can operate at rb and he already likes to bomb forward.
I am just saying that we will still be at the same amount of players. what is the point in investing in players without a positive end. The main thing is not about shaq or perisic. I am saying if we need to go down to 25 then who are we getting rid of. On another note the positive i see is shaq and kova have been playing the same position and having perisic on the left will be good for him due to nationality purposes. It might help him find his form better.
Shaq refuse all offers and prove to our weak coach you are amazing player.Much better than Perisic!
i read that and it sounds ludicrous. just because they’re doing something wrong it’s okay for him to do it…..
why would you want him to stay? inter are in need of money. so what’s the point of him staying?
I feel sorry for you Shaq. I think you deserve more playing time and better place on the team. I really sad with your departure. I hope your career at Schalke will take you to a whole new level. Thanks for your time during 6 months in this team :'(
Feel sorry? This average guy got paid millions to cut lemons on the sidelines… shaq can go eat a kebap
Shame on you Mancioshit.Worst coach and so ungrateful!
just shut up, use your logic
You’re the worst troll on this site dude. GTFO
no he is not….I AM 🙂
Джокерфенshit
Because I telling the truth?
are you even an inter fan
guys please stop asking that question…you are embarrasing yourself like that… who will be in this site if no a inter fan…even i miss wathever was his name is inter fan…
Yes!
Fuck You Jokerfin… Go To Germany And Suck Shaqiri’s Dick
You suck Mancioshit dick!

If we can’t have one Shaq we will have another.
hahaha
Hope all the best for u Shaq.
I feel sorry and very sad for you shaq.. Hope the best possible career for you.. Uno di noi
i hope too, i hope shaq didnt hate us.
Shaqiri is much better player and much more versatile than Perisic.
mancini doesn’t think so. maybe you know more football than him.
While I do support the coach – mancini is not a god that will never make a mistake. He couldn’t figure out how to use shaq and kova and now he’s selling shaq. The way shaq was handled (IMO) is very unprofessional. I hope this works out BUT mancini has been known to be very spoiled when it comes to transfers
Forza inter, because it’s the team’s well being and position I care about. Not mancini or Shaqiri.
the whole jan window was rushed and they didn’t prepare correctly. since coming, thohir’s pressure to reach a top 3 finish and what not really got into him. as you can see santon, shaq are not in his plans anymore. i think it was a unrealistic target to begin with. that’s why i give him a pass on what happen last season.
ausilio plays a big in most transfers. like the brozovic and the murillo one.
Lol, everyone got their own opinion here, you’re no coach yourself i believe, so ….
no i’m not whats your point?
I might have to disagree on that. Don’t let your emotions take over, Perisic would probably be more useful than Shaq. We’ll judge once he’s here
This disgusts me
