Inter are understood to be in talks with Atletico Madrid over wingers Yannick Carrasco and Nicolas Gaitan as per a report from Turin based newspaper Tuttosport.
The Spanish club would ultimately like to sell both the Belgian and Argentine outright but Inter could offer Joao Mario in a trade offer to land one of them. This comes despite Joao Mario being a player Inter could raise some serious cash from which would their Financial Fair Play cause.
Making a serious assault for Gaitan at the moment is difficult because he does not have EU status and Inter only have one non-EU spot left which they may wish to use on other targets instead. The former Benfica man’s representatives have however recently stated that they are working on securing their client a Portuguese passport. The Nerazzurri are not alone in courting Gaitan however and face competition from Argentine giants Boca Juniors.
Carrasco is good, but inconsistent, he lack at decision making. Look alike candreva.
Anyone knows why would Atletico release or sell Carasco? I remember watched him last season in just few matches. I don’t know about his form this season, but he was a beast at the wing. Faster than Candreva for sure and really strong in dribbling. But in the end spain league is really different from seri-a. Even Kdog is a top player there.
So yeah, Carrasco will be nice. But I still prefer someone who already knows seri-a. That will be a quick boost to help us secure the CL spot.
I’d be okay to lose JM if we get Carrasco!
I will loose my mind if we swop JM for gaitan. JM could still become great, whereas Gaitan is (or soon will be) over the top…
Yannick Carrasco please…exhange with Joao Mario + money..
Better than loan + option buy rafinha 23 million euro..
Carrasco would be a dream come true!
