One of Suning’s main plans for the Nerazzurri since taking over, is to build a Nerazzurri team with far more Italian players than present when they bought the club.
Gazzetta dello Sport reports that Inter have identified Cagliari’s Nicolo Barella, Atalanta’s Bryan Cristante and Fiorentina’s Federico Chiesa as the main names the Nerazzurri are keeping tabs on. To comply with UEFA’s Financial Fair Play rules before signing any one, Inter have to make a big money sale either by selling Joao Mario or Marcelo Brozovic, as the duo are the players linked the most with a move away from the Giuseppe Meazza.
According to the report Inter have made contact with Cagliari about Barella over the weekend when the two sides met at the Sardegna Arena. Inter would like to sign him when the transfer window opens this January. The Sardinian side are demanding € 30-35 million whilst Inter would like to insert a young player to go in the opposite direction to reduce the cost, with Andrea Pinamonti being the player identified to be most likely to leave.
Another name on Inter’s list is former AC Milan midfielder Bryan Cristante, who is also a prime target for other top Serie A clubs. Cristante is valued at € 20-25 million but Inter will have to look more into the financial structure of that particular transfer.
The last name on the list is Fiorentina’s winger Federico Chiesa who is perhaps the most expensive among the three players discussed. He recently renewed his contract with the Viola and is now earning €2 million net per season and his asking price should be around €50 million according to the Gazzetta.
Chiesa, Torreira and De Vrij or Gimenez for next season, please. If Spalletti sees that Barella or Christante would work in his system like Vecino does then why not buy one of them.
perfect bro
letting Pinamonti go would be the ultimate bs move made by Inter, hope it never happens unless it is only gonna be smthg like 2yrs loan or stuff like that, letting this young jewel go is worse than letting Coutinho and Kovacic go combined
We have nice primavera youngsters right now. It´s been a long time since I have been as hopeful as I´m right now that couple of them might become good enough for Inter.
That Odgaard has a silky technique for 188 cm dude. Zaniolo seems also really promising. Colidio has been quite good in first few games and I guess Valietti has a lot promise, but I haven´t seen too much of him nor Vanheusden. Rover could be a surprise.
But most of all I´d want us to buy back Dimarco from Sion – his shooting/crossing technique is just great. Is Pinamonti that amazing or just another Bonazzoli/Puscas/Longo? I´m not too sure of him, because our young primavera strikers are always so hyped up. Isn´t Destro the only striker in at least 15 years or something who has even in somewhat lived up to the hype?
Couple of these guys just might become good enough, but it´s hard to say which ones. Right now I´m somehow most hopeful of Dimarco and Odgaard. Hopefully some of them, because it has happened so damn rarely recently.
I mean the track record with our most promising youngsters in last ten years, Jeesus. Santon is a super promising full back who ends up being one of the most injury prone players ever. Balotelli who is a Bilan fan and whose purpose is to self-destruct. And then Bonucci who is traded away and out of all clubs freaking Juve sees the potential in him that our guys don´t. Hopefully, just hopefully we are on a verge of some sort change on making our youngsters first team players.
Idk, from what I’ve seen from Pinamonti, he is already a great young striker with skills to play in-field, not an anchor in attack, could be used liuttle more than he’s been, but I could never understand the politics of leading the club and why some players just don’t make it, although they posses skill which u can see with own eyes, yeah, I agree with Dimarco, great youngster, maybe he was also sent with purpose to bring back one day, like Santon today
Yeah, hopefully Pina will get lots of minutes against Porderone in the Italian cup game. Something is wrong with whole Italy´s youth production. Hopefully their federation and people involved can come up with viable plan instead of stupid stuff like limiting foreigners.
Maybe b-teams for for the bigger teams, so that youngsters get to play harder games and some sort of structured plan to build up their careers. I don´t know. They could/should emulate Germany, but I guess eventually it all comes down to willingness to invest more money to youth production.
yeah, that is a great way to solve things, if only ppl that matter could come to same solution, would be great, çause I really think this side would have a chance at least for serie C, if not for more
