Inter are at risk of missing out on bringing striker Eder back to the club, with Parma hoping to conclude a deal with the former Italy international.

The 34-year-old is keen on a return to Italy after two-and-a-half years in the Chinese Premier League with Jiangsu Suning, and available for transfer with just six months remaining on his contract.

According to Sky Sport Italia, have made numerous approaches for Eder and hope to bring him in, but are unable to find space for him in their squad unless they offload young striker Andrea Pinamonti.

Bologna have shown a strong interest in Pinamonti and hope to conclude a deal before today’s deadline, but the lengthy delays could have a wider effect on Inter’s transfer strategy.

Indeed, it has allowed Parma to enter the race for Eder and the Crociati have begun negotiations to find an agreement with him, as he looks to terminate his contract at Jiangsu.
