Inter Milan manager Simone Inzaghi has made it known that Alvaro Morata is his preferred candidate to bolster the frontline.
The Nerazzurri have already parted ways with Edin Dzeko who joined Fenerbahce after seeing out his contract with the Italian giants.
On the other hand, Romelu Lukaku’s situation escalated into a full-blown soap opera. Inter decided to drop out of the race after learning that the Belgian was simultaneously negotiating with Juventus. He wasn’t returning the club’s calls either.
The Beneamata did well to bring Marcus Thuram on board, signing the Frenchman on a free transfer. However, this remains insufficient. The Serie A side will certainly add one more striker to the fold. But who will it be?
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport via FcInterNews, Inter Milan coach Inzaghi has identified Alvaro Morata as the right man for the job.

The 30-year-old still has another year on his contract with Atletico Madrid. So we shall see if the Nerazzurri would be able to reach an agreement with the Spanish capital side who are reportedly holding out for 21 million euros.
The Spain international has significant Serie A experience under the belt having represented Juventus for four years; His first spell in Turin was between 2014 and 2016. He then returned to the Allianz Stadium in 2020 and remained on loan until 2022.
As for Inzaghi, he could soon extend his contract with the club until 2025 as we reported earlier today.
