Inter want to sign a box-to-box midfielder and a new striker in the upcoming January transfer window according to a report from Italian news outlet FCInterNews.it.

Inter really like Udinese’s Rodrigo de Paul but the Bianconeri club’s €35 million evaluations makes it impossible for a deal to be done at this time.

Although not a box-to-box midfielder, Inter are also keeping a close eye on how the situation of Alejandro ‘Papu’ Gomez develops at Atalanta.

Only if the Argentine is officially placed on the transfer market will Inter make any sort of move. Inter’s owners Suning do not want to spend a lot to bring the former Catania player to the club either.

As for the attack, the report goes on to explain that signing Olivier Giroud from Chelsea appears a far away possibility whilst Parma’s Gervinho is a player that Inter are really keen on at this moment in time.

The Ivorian has characteristics that are currently lacking in Inter’s attacking department.

The report goes on to conclude that Liverpool’s Divock Origi has meanwhile been offered to Inter chief executive Giuseppe ‘Beppe’ Marotta many times by intermediaries.
