Inter will need to offer Roma €13 million and one of their promising young players in order to complete the signing of striker Edin Dzeko, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.
Dzeko represents a key transfer target for the Nerazzurri’s new boss Antonio Conte and is thought to have already agreed a three-year deal.
The Bosnian international’s arrival would ensure Inter are covered for strikers whatever happens to Mauro Icardi this summer, with their pursuit of Manchester United striker Romelu Lukaku likely to prove difficult.
Roma are hoping to raise €20 million in transfer funds from a range of sources over the next couple of weeks.
The Giallorossi recouped €4.5 million from Liverpool’s Champions League triumph on Saturday, due to add-ons included in the deals reached for Mohamed Salah and Alisson during the last two summers.
Milan’s exclusion from the Europa League for violating Financial Fair Play rules, meanwhile, would earn them a further €2 million if confirmed, as it would enable the club to take part in the International Champions Cup instead of playing preliminary rounds.
