According to FCInterNews.it, Inter are on the verge of signing both Felipe Melo and Alex Telles from Galatasaray. Both players are expected to land in Milan later on tonight where the deal will be finalized. Inter coach Roberto Mancini wanted these two players at all cost and is now getting them. The Nerazzurri had been tracking Felipe Melo all summer, but the deal seemed to fall through when the Brazilian international signed a new deal with the Turkish giants. However during the last few days Inter rekindled their interest in the player and finally reached a deal with Galatasaray for both Melo and Telles.
Felipe Melo will cost Inter €3.5m plus bonuses and will sign a contract worth around €3m a year. Alex Telles will arrive on a loan with the option to buy at the end of the season.

I hope this garbage Melo broke his leg in first Inter match!I hate you fucking gobbo di merda shit!
This is such a bad deal! 3m a year for a 32 year old benchwarmer? Why can’t Mancini let Melo go?
reading a few opinions about Telles, i feel like another wingback arrives who is only good at one thing, either attacking or defending
So many defensive players lol
I think rano and JJ traumitised mancini of the defence and caused him to go for a defense purchase overload
Telles is great in Football Manager lol. He was linked with Chelsea in the past so I guess he is quite good…?
Porto refused a 30m offer from Chelsea for Alvaro Pereira 6 months before we bought him…
hope alex sandro is like pereira
He’s weak defensively.I’m watching him 2 years (every Galatsaray game) He can make a few attack from left than he can lose his men at defence and give error…
Hopefully he can improve his defending and our solid back line can provide some cover
3 mil a year is little much, I would be happy with 2-2.5. Do we have some Turkish guys here or someone who had watched Telles more than 4 time to tell us how good he is?
Never seen him play, heard that he’s very promising but needs to improve his defending a little. Again this is just what I’ve heard
Awful defender, he’s only 67 or 68 kg.
Well this is encouraging..
i hope he’s not another dodo
JJ, Montoya, Santon, Nagatomo, Dodo, D’Ambrosio, Dimarco and now possibly Telles. That is 8 fullbacks for 2 spots with no European competition that would require rotations. If we sign him, we need to offload Nagatomo and D’Ambrosio.
wasn’t galata interested in naga?
They realised they were being insane maybe?
Nah not insane, only slightly delusional
his 10 min performane againts Carpi convinced every interested teams…
I think Nagatomo will be left to rot in the bench until the winter transfers, JJ will be focused more as a defender, Mancini isn’t impressed by Montoya and Dodo isn’t fit at all
somehow i’d love more if Mancini brought players over from his other ex-teams (Lazio, City)
