Inter Milan consider defender Yann Bisseck to be non-transferable despite some offers from the Premier League and Bundesliga.
This according to Italian news outlet Gazzetta.it. They report that there would be plenty of interest in the German’s signature, but that the Nerazzurri have dismissed all offers for him out of hand.
Inter signed Bisseck last summer from Danish club Aarhus.
Even at a fee of €7 million, the move for the German Under-21 captain represented something of a gamble for the Nerazzurri.
Bisseck had certainly shown signs of his quality before joining Inter.
However, these came in the Danish top flight and at youth team level. It was never certain that Bisseck would be able to smoothly make the step up to a level as high as Serie A.
At the start of last season, Bisseck barely played.
This was due to the 23-year-old needing a period to settle in, grow, and adjust to his new team in training.
But in the late autumn, Bisseck started getting opportunities in the Inter first team. And he took them with both hands.
The German’s performances starting in November of last year showed that Inter’s gamble in signing him had paid off.
Inter Consider Yann Bisseck Non-Transferable Despite Offers
Bisseck’s performances over the second half of last season have attracted some transfer interest.
According to the Gazzetta, there have been bids from the Premier League and the Bundesliga for Bisseck.
These have been in the region of €10-12 million.
However, the Gazzetta reports, Inter have not even entertained these offers.
Of course, the Nerazzurri would have a price for Bisseck at which they’d listen to offers. But it is far higher than any of the bids that have come in.
Inter’s plan is certainly to keep Bisseck.
The 23-year-old is a player who the Nerazzurri are ready to hand an even more prominent role next season.
Last campaign Bisseck got up to the pace of Inter and Serie A. He began to show a maturity to his game that hardly hinted at how new playing at this level is to him.
And this summer, Bisseck has impressed in preseason.
Both in training and in friendly matches the German has kicked on from last season, looking ready to play a big role for Inter next campaign.
Bisseck will certainly be the first-choice backup to Benjamin Pavard next season. He could also get the chance to try his hand at playing in the centre or on the left of the back three.
And as the Gazzetta note, Bisseck could even be an option as a long-term heir to Stefan de Vrij and Francesco Acerbi in the central role should he prove able to play in the position.
Therefore, Inter are not thinking about selling Bisseck. He is an important part of plans, both for next season and for the long-term future.
