It is now obvious that Inter’s primary goal for the defence is Antonio Rüdiger, central defender (but not only that) in Roma. With Manolas remaining in the capitol the former Stuttgart player seems to be new Sporting Director Monchi’s first sacrifice. “Since we are talking about a value of 40-45 million of euros, Roma has to evaluate the situation, but Inter is willing to spend 30 million according to TuttoSport. Rüdiger was a key player for Spalletti since he could play on two positions: both as a central defender and as a right fullback. During the last season he played a lot as a right fullback, thereby enabling Spalletti to play with a three-man defence with Rüdiger ready to move in to the center giving the left fullback more opportunities to attack. There is a reason that Inter is currently working on getting left fullback Dalbert to Milan”.
