Inter’s number 10 Stevan Jovetic will not stay with the Nerazzuri for the 2016-17 season. The Italian club signed him from Man City last summer on a two-season loan deal with compulsory buy-out clause.
Inter will be forced to activate the € 14.5 million buy-out clause after Jovetic’s next appearance with the club or, if Inter fail to play the Montenegro star by the end of the year, provided that Inter are not in the relegation zone on the 31st of December.
Inter do not want to trigger Jovetic’s buy-out clause for two reasons: the first one is tactical as Jovetic would not get enough game time this season. The second reason is economic: Inter can’t afford paying the player’s transfer fee.
What does the future have in store for the former Man City star?
Ausilio of course, is working to sell the player on a permanent deal, but most of the clubs that are interested have only made loan offers.
Fiorentina are dreaming of the return of Jo-Jo, but they are not willing to pay € 14.5 million and they can’t even guarantee the player the same € 3 million-a-year-salary that Jovetic is currently getting at Inter. Premier League clubs have made loan offers, whilst Zenit St. Petersburg have only sounded out Inter, without making official proposals.
Jovetic is for sale, but who is going to sign him for € 14.5 million?

“Inter can’t afford paying the player’s transfer fee.”
Yeah, but they can afford Gabriel who costs twice as much and plays twice as worse than Jovetic.
Is this shit for real? We’ve got absolutely no depth if Jojo goes. We’re seriously gonna wait for Gabigol to come… maybe in January if we’re extremely lucky to even get him. And then wait a season or two until he adapts in Italy.
True! If he leaves we’ll only have Icardi and Eder up front…and Palacio but, hey, you know,…
He reminds me of Zarate, skillful player to watch. But we need someone who can score more often.
“Jovetic is for sale, but who is going to sign him for € 14.5 million?”
Considering he has done nothing worthwhile for 3 seasons now, no one.
so he will leave shortly- that doesn’t sound good he was playing in the pre-season matches-
so can we call this a managerial screw-up???? scrambling to figure-out what to do with JoJo during the last days of the Mercato
Yea it makes very little sense tbh.
Did this suddenly come as a surprise to them, a week before the mercato closes?
