Inter have lined up Torino defender Kofi Djidji as their replacement for Danilo D’Ambrosio should he leave the club at the end of the current season.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews, who report that the Nerazzurri will look to sign the 30-year-old on a free transfer should they not agree a contract extension with D’Ambrosio.

D’Ambrosio’s current contract at Inter is set to expire at the end of June 2023.

It is currently uncertain whether or not the Nerazzurri will agree a new deal with the 34-year-old.

Given that D’Ambrosio is currently the main backup for Milan Skriniar on the right side of the back three, Inter would have to find a like-for-like replacement for the former Torino defender if he leaves in the summer.

Djidji’s profile fits well for the role, as the Ivorian has demonstrated that he can play on the right side of a back three well across several seasons with the Granata.

The 30-year-old defender’s contract with Torino runs out at the end of June 2023, and given that no extension looks to be forthcoming, would be available on a free transfer.
