Inter Milan are confident in their ability to overcome all hurdles and complete the transfer of Yann Sommer sooner rather than later.
Following the departures of Samir Handanovic and Andre Onana, the Nerazzurri must sign two new goalkeepers.
The Italian giants have identified the Bayern Munich veteran as the right profile for the Number One spot. The 34-year-old is immensely experienced, reliable and affordable.
But while Inter have already reached an agreement with the Swiss custodian, finding an accord with the Bavarian club remains a more challenging matter.
The Bundesliga champions don’t want to offload Sommer before securing a competent replacement. In the meantime, Manuel Neuer still hasn’t completely recovered from his lengthy injury.
Yet, the Nerazzurri remain confident and optimistic. According to Sky Sport via FcInterNews, Inter expect to finalize the transfer by this weekend.
As the source explains, there will be another round of negotiations in the next few hours.
Inter Milan Believe They’ll Be Able To Reach An Accord With Bayern Munich Over The Transfer Of Yann Sommer By This Weekend
The Serie A giants are still looking to avoid paying the goalkeeper’s release clause (worth six million euros). They believe they can reach an agreement with their German counterparts on a lower figure.
The Switzerland international rose to fame during his time at FC Basel but he’s been plying his trade in the Bundesliga since 2014.
Following a long spell at Borussia Monchengladbach, he joined Bayern Munich last January as a replacement for the injured Neuer. His contract with the Bavarians runs until 2025.
