Matteo Politano is one step away from wearing the Nerazzurri jersey according to Gazzetta dello Sport who also report that the Italian’s arrival will not stop Malcom from also becoming an Inter player.

Inter are hoping to complete the signing of Politano on loan with the right to buy for €25 million which will also see Inter Primavera talents Gabriele Zappa and Davide Merola move to the MAPEI Stadium outfit. The 24-year-old starred for Sassuolo last season scoring 11 goals and delivering five assists in a total of 39 appearances across all competitions.

The Milanese newspaper add that should Malcom also join, it is almost certain that Yann Karamoh or Antonio Candreva will make way and move on to pastures new. Negotiations with Bordeaux remain tense and the Brazilian’s agent has already confirmed that Inter will not be able to sign him on loan unless it is with a redemption obligation rather than a redemption option.
