Inter have created a list of potential players that could replace Ivan Perisic if he leaves the club next summer, including Filip Kostic and Marcos Alonso, according to a report in the Italian media.

As has been reported by Calciomercato.com, Ivan Perisic’s contract with Inter will expire in 2022 and the club are hesitant about offering him a new one given his high wages and age.

Whether they do or not is likely dependent on how easy it will be to sign an effective replacement for the Croatian.

Eintracht Frankfurt’s Filip Kostic was linked to the club in the summer and he is now being linked again, along with Chelsea’s Marcos Alonso who would be a more expensive option.

A more unusual choice would be Carlos Augusto who plays for Monza in Serie B. That deal would be hard to finance as the Brazilian is still part-owned by Corinthians rather than entirely Monza.
