Matias Vecino will be an Inter player by August 1st Gazzetta dello Sport report. On Monday, Inter met with the midfielder’s agent and the Nerazzurri confirmed they were willing to pay his €24 million release clause, which is valid until August 10th. Moreover, Inter requested that the fee would be split over three instalments opposed to two.
Vecino would be joining Borja Valero in swapping Fiorentina for Inter this summer and as things stand would be Inter’s fourth addition.

A big NO to trapping ourselves for 5 years with a mediocre player.
Maybe he’ll suck maybe not. But he actually posses many of the things our midfield lacks at the moment: he’s a great tackler, has great long ball passing skills, is good at brining the ball forward at his feet running up between lines, has a great long shot on him and is great at linking up with Valero.
He’s not a super sexy signing, but knowing Sabatini I’m sure he knows what he’s doing!
My question is where does signing the 8-th team’s midfielder duo take us? 24m is way too much for him. I’d rather see Kondo or Gaglia in that role, unless someone like N’Zonzi, Matic, Naingolan arrives.
