Inter are considering the future of Uruguayan defender Diego Godin, following on from the player’s relatively muted impact under coach Antonio Conte, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Rome based newspaper Corriere dello Sport.
The report details how the 34-year-old veteran defender, who is contracted to the Nerazzurri until 2022, has only started alongside Stefan De Vrij and Milan Skriniar 11 times out of 25 so far this season. The player has struggled to adapt to Conte’s three-man defense and has often been pushed out of the starting lineup by 20-year-old Italian defender Alessandro Bastoni.
Both Godin and Inter are considering what to do in the summer, the report continues. Both Manchester United and Valencia are interested in him, with the Red Devils having attempted to sign him last summer before the Nerazzurri eventually secured his signature.
Inter are also following 20-year-old Hellas Verona defender Marash Kumbulla, the report adds. The player, who has impressed massively in his 19 appearances so far this season, is worth at least €20 million, and has experience in a three-man defense. The Nerazzurri may sign him as a replacement for Godin.
