Inter are readying themselves for a heart-stopping end to this summer’s transfer window, according to FcInter1908.
The Italian market will close on 2 September but the Nerazzurri still have plenty to do in the three weeks leading up to that date.
Mauro Icardi’s future is the most pressing issue that needs resolving but Beppe Marotta is still hoping for a couple of extra signings.
Inter are targeting a forward, a left-sided wing-back and another central midfielder before negotiations stop at the beginning of next month.
Antonio Conte is keen to bring in another player on the left of his 3-5-2 system after deciding Dalbert is not reliable enough defensively.
The Brazilian would be happy to return to Nice, who sold him to Inter in 2017 and have recently offered a loan deal with an option to buy.
Fiorentina left-back Cristiano Biraghi is a profile Inter like for various reasons, one of which relates to his ‘homegrown’ status that would help Conte compile his Champions League squad.
Ante Rebic is an alternative option but costs €40 million, having scored three goals in his first three matches for Eintracht Frankfurt this season, while Paris Saint-Germain’s Layvin Kurzawa does not entirely convince Marotta or Piero Ausilio.
Inter have officially denied any move for a high-profile midfielder but it seems Marotta is still targeting a last-minute lunge for Sergej Milinkovic-Savic.
The Serbian international could become a serious target during the final few days of the window as the Nerazzurri aim to finish their summer with a bang.
Marotta would like to have his hands free in the last week of the market in order to plot a move for the Lazio man.
Inter will have played two Serie A matches by the time trading stops but it will only be after 2 September that focus truly switches to action on the pitch.
