Inter are struggling to make progress in their bids to offload Joao Mario, Borja Valero and George Puscas, according to Corriere dello Sport.
The Nerazzurri cannot afford to spend any more money in the transfer market until they complete a few player sales, allowing Juventus to nip in and snatch Romelu Lukaku.
Mario has interest from Monaco on the table but Inter don’t want to make a net loss, while a loan deal would not cover the costs of his amortisation.
Valero is in talks with Fiorentina over a return move, but the midfielder’s wages are proving a stumbling block for now.
Radja Nainggolan now appears more likely to move to Florence than his teammate, but Joe Barone and Daniele Prade do not have much room for maneouvre with either player.
Monaco have offered Inter a swap deal with Pietro Pellegri for Mario, but that would not give the club any more funds with which to pursue other targets.
The paper reassured the Nerazzurri, saying: “There’s still a month left until the window closes and opportunities can always pop up from anywhere. Both in a good and a bad sense.”
