Inter are keeping a close eye on Federico Chiesa’s situation at Fiorentina and are poised to take action according to a report from Italian news outlet FCInterNews.it.
Fiorentina are still yet to agree a contract extension with the highly rated 22-year-old winger and an exit is almost inevitable in the event that he does not sign a new deal with La Viola.
Inter are big admirers of the Italian national team player who perfectly fits the club’s transfer policy of being young and Italian and the report goes on to explain that Inter chief executive Giuseppe ‘Beppe’ Marotta boasts an excellent relationship with the player’s father and agent Enrico Chiesa.
Furthermore, according to the report, Juventus have slowed down their pursuit to sign Chiesa after having wrapped up Dejan Kulusevski in January. This together with the fact that Inter know Chiesa is keen on a move to Inter means that the Nerazzurri wont offer more than €35-40 million in cash plus a player as part payment.
Fiorentina currently value Chiesa at €70 million but Inter do not want to spend any more than €35-40 million plus a player. If he does not renew his contract his price is bound to drop which will come much to the delight of Inter.
