Lyon’s Moussa Dembele and Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha have been offered to Inter Milan on free transfers to reinforce in attack during this summer transfer window.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews, who also report that the Nerazzurri are interested in Arsenal’s Folarin Balogun and Lens’s Lois Openda as possible attacking reinforcements.

Inter will have a fair bit of attacking business to do during this summer transfer window.

Edin Dzeko has one foot out the door as he nears a move to Fenerbahce on a free transfer.

Meanwhile, Joaquin Correa is expected to leave, with Premier League duo Everton and West Ham United showing interest.

Accordingly, there will be at least a couple of slots open in attack at the San Siro. According to Tuttosport, Inter are starting to explore their options on how to fill them.

Dembele & Zaha Offered To Inter On Free Transfers

Two possibilities have emerged in the form of players who will be leaving their clubs on free transfers.

One is Lyon striker Moussa Dembele. The former Celtic, Fulham, and Atletico Madrid’s deal with Lyon runs out at the end of this month.

Dembele will seek a new adventure for next season rather than extending with Lyon.

The 26-year-old’s representatives have reportedly offered him to Inter as an out-and-out centre-forward option.

Meanwhile, Tuttosport, Crystal Palace’s Wilfried Zaha is another player set to leave his club on a free transfer.

According to the newspaper, the 30-year-old Ivorian international has been offered to Inter on a free transfer as he seeks a new club.

Lukebakio, Openda & Balogun Also On Nerazzurri Radar

Inter are not only thinking about dipping into the free transfer market, however.

Tuttosport also report that Hertha Berlin star Dodi Lukebakio is a very attainable target for the Nerazzurri. Hertha’s relegation means that they could snatch the Belgian international for a cut-price fee.

In the case of Arsenal’s Balogun and Lens striker Openda, the price tag would make things more complicated.

However, Inter are fans of both. They could try to work out a deal for either on the basis of a loan with a creative structure.
