Inter are the club closest to signing Hellas Verona starlet Marash Kumbulla but their rivals cannot be discounted, according to a report from Italian media outlet FcInterNews earlier today.
The report details how Juventus relaunched their assault on the 20-year-old Albanian defender, offering the Gialloblu €20 million in cash as well as two players in exchange, creating a deal worth €32 million overall. Verona are still considering the deal but haven’t decided yet.
Lazio are also keen to sign Kumbulla, the report continues, with Igli Tare particularly keen on the 20-year-old. Inter are ahead in the race though, having already offered the player a five-year contract with a salary worth €1.5 million plus add-ons per season, which would rise over time.
Foreign clubs aren’t set to provide any real competition as the player wants to stay in Italy, but the Nerazzurri must still remain aware that their Italian competition won’t give up easily.
