Inter and Paris Saint Germain are in talks over a possible exchange deal involving Joao Mario and Javier Pastore Tuttosport understand.
The Turin based outlet report that the idea is not a fantasy whatsoever and the clubs both have intermediaries working upon a deal which could come to fruition as early as the January mercato in little over two months time.
PSG’s Sporting Director Antero Henrique is a big fan of Joao Mario while the Nerazzurri view Argentine international Pastore as the man who can play directly behind compatriot Mauro Icardi in the number 10 role.
Moreover, recent reports in the media suggest Inter are interested in Jiangsu Suning’s Ramires, who like Pastore is a South American. However, Pastore holds an Italian passport which therefore means Inter can sign both players should they chose to do so.
Tuttosport also discuss the Arturo Vidal links, stating that in order for the Chilean to arrive, Inter would be required to make a big sacrifice to fund the former Juventus midfielder’s move from Bayern Munich. Moreover, if Inter were to want Vidal, they would be forced to chose between him and Ramires, due to only having the one non-EU quota space left.

when I read this word “Tuttosport understand”, i stop read this article and write this comment.
better sell Joao and buy real no. 10
Maybe we should consider selling J.Mario and get Milinkovic-Savic & Torreira.
Samp’s Torreira? Is he that good? because i don’t see the potential after watching a few times he played
All in for that swap
Why don’t try mario at CM ? i remember him pocketed pogba in that position
Do it
Pastore is good, but better loan ramires in january and then go all in to get sergej from lazio next season. I like Vidal but I’m afraid he’ll create disharmony in dressing room as his salary demand is too high and he has bad drinking habits.
Sergei is great and still only 22 years old! He surely could become the hard tackling down tracking “Naingolan-kind of attacking midfielder” with a great shot and superb passes we need behind Icardi and that Spalletti loves!
But he will cost us shit loads where as Pastore will maybe be “easier” to get in due to PSG needing to sell a couple of players before next summer.
We need hardworking midfielder to win battle with Rube and Napoli midfielder. I’m afraid pastore doesn’t have enough muscle to do it, so between ramires and pastore, I prefer ramires. Sergej is pure talent, may worth 60-70 milion, but still it is a good investment.
lovveed that sergej dude from lazio..but it is proven over and over again that it is sooo hard to deal with lazio bosses
It’s the worst possible time to buy him now. He is having a great season so far, he is all over the media, his price skyrocketed, and no one knows if he is capable of continuing on this level or he will flop next year.
that’s why I said to buy sergej next summer, while for this season I prefer ramires over pastore.
i say do the trade. jm hv been a square peg and it would be wise move by both sides without too many money involved. and i would take vidal for his vast experience over ramirez any day.
