Inter CEO Beppe Marotta is ready to raid former club Juventus to sign wing-back Juan Cuadrado on a free transfer next summer.

As reported in today’s newspaper edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport, the Colombia international is out of contract at the end of the season and would be available on a free transfer, making him an enticing prospect for Marotta.

Inter are in the market for a wing-back who can operate on the right and Marotta is familiar with Cuadrado, having worked with him during his own spell at Juventus up to 2019.

The former Fiorentina and Chelsea player had been of interest to Inter last season, with the Nerazzurri contemplating a free transfer in the summer until Juventus triggered an automatic one-year extension in his contract.

Whilst the 34-year-old remains a first-team regular with the Bianconeri, his future at the club is not settled and he could be a strong target for Inter towards the end of the season.
