Inter Milan are ready to pay the €6 million release clause necessary to sign Bayern Munich goalkeeper Yann Sommer.
This according to German news outlet Kicker, via FCInterNews, who report that the Nerazzurri are preparing for a round of talks with Bayern imminently, as they aim to get the signing of Sommer all done within the next few days.
Inter and Manchester United will shortly complete a deal for Andre Onana.
The agreement is all there and the Cameroonian should complete his medicals and sign his contract at Old Trafford soon.
Now, the Nerazzurri are already hard at work on signing replacements for the Cameroonian as well as captain Samir Handanovic.
Bayern keeper Yann Sommer is top of Inter’s list in terms of an experienced keeper.
The Nerazzurri have been advancing in talks for the 34-year-old Swiss international. The player is ready to sign a four-year deal, and Bayern are very much open to the deal.
The fact that Bayern captain Manuel Neuer’s recovery from injury has been delayed longer than expected presented a slight hitch.
However, the German are in any event going after Valencia’s Giorgi Mamardashvili. As they firm up their pursuit of the German, they will happily wrap up talks with Inter for Sommer.
Inter Milan Will Pay Release Clause For Bayern Keeper Yann Sommer
Sommer has a release clause in his contract with Bayern worth €6 million.
And according to Kicker, Inter are prepared to pay it.
The Nerazzurri’s priority now that Onana’s departure is imminent is to not waste time signing Sommer.
They certainly do not want to be caught out unable to sign the Swiss international once Onana leaves for good.
Therefore, the Nerazzurri will simply pay the release clause for Sommer. That way they can wrap up the deal for the 34-year-old with minimal fuss.
