Hellas Verona have received another blow ahead of their weekend clash against Inter Milan, with Filippo Terracciano on the verge of leaving the club.
Marco Baroni’s men travel to Milano to take on the league leaders in Saturday’s early kickoff.
Sadly for the Verona manager, his backline is being depleted ahead of the daunting encounter.
The Gialloblu have already sold their key defender Isak Hien to Atalanta.
Moreover, the club is now on the cusp of selling Terracciano to AC Milan, reports Sky Sport Italia via FcInterNews, rubbing salt in the wound.
As the source tells it, the Rossoneri have prevailed in the race to sign the versatile 20-year-old defender. They beat competition from the likes of Juventus, As Roma and Fiorentina.
Hellas Verona Lose The Services Of Filippo Terracciano Just Before Inter Milan Clash
Milan offered Verona 4.5 million euros plus bonuses for the Italian’s services. The Serie A strugglers decided to accept the bid.
Therefore, the Verona youth product will leave the nest and travel to Milano. But instead of joining his teammates in their uphill battle against Inter, he will end up joining the ranks of their crosstown rivals.
Verona started their campaign on a positive note, winning their first two league fixtures. Nevertheless, they have been a free fall ever since.
They now find themselves in 17th place in the Serie A standings. Their superior goal difference over Cagliari puts them just above the relegation zone.
Baroni will have to pull off rapid solutions at the back to repel Simone Inzaghi’s attacking unit.
