Inter are considering a summer move for Sporting Lisbon midfielder William Carvalho, Corriere dello Sport reports.
Having all-but secured the arrivals of Stefan De Vrij, Kwadwo Asamoah and Lautaro Martinez for the following season, the Nerazzurri are now looking for players with ‘personality’ to reinforce their midfield as the transfer window moves closer.
According to the Rome-based publication, Carvalho’s is a name that needs to be kept in consideration as he could be the player sporting director Piero Ausilio moves for in the coming weeks.
The paper also provides an update on the futures of Luciano Spalletti and Mauro Icardi, who are both said to be heading towards remaining with the club.
Spalletti has convinced Inter’s Italian management and is expected to be offered a contract extension at some point, provided owners Suning give the all clear, as he is seen as a key figure in the club’s project heading forward.
Icardi meanwhile is said to want to stay at the club, like he has always insisted, and is therefore more likely to stay than to leave as things stand.
