Inter Milan are targeting the likes of Samuele Ricci and Oumar Solet as they look to spend big in the transfer market this summer with Champions League revenues.
This according to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInter1908. They note that the Nerazzurri are sitting on a “mountain” of cash from Europe’s top club competition.
Inter Milan are really gearing up for the summer transfer window now.
And it will be a different kind of window than the Nerazzurri have become used to in recent years.
Since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, Inter have had to work within severe financial restrictions in the transfer market.
The Nerazzurri have effectively had to make up for an ongoing financial crisis each summer. They’ve had to make big money sales, and target bargain signings.
But that all appears to be in the past now. Inter have righted the ship on a financial level.
And with €133 million and counting coming in from the Champions League in prize money alone this season, Inter have the war chest to really go out and spend big for the first time in more than half a decade.
Inter Milan Targeting Ricci & Solet Among Ambitious Summer Signings
According to the Corriere, Inter have drawn up a list of transfer targets. And there are some ambitious ones in the mix.
In midfield, Inter have already signed Petar Sucic. But they have a further reinforcement in mind in the form of Torino midfielder Samuele Ricci.
Another midfielder that the Nerazzurri are eyeing up, the Corriere reports, is Genoa’s Morten Frendrup.
Meanwhile, the Nerazzurri are in talks to sign winger Luis Henrique.
Marseille want €30 million for Henrique. Meanwhile, Inter have gone as high as €30 million with their offer.
Then, in defense, Inter are targeting Udinese defender Oumar Solet.
Also on the Nerazzurri’s list are Bologna duo Sam Beukema and Jhon Lucumi, and Genoa’s Koni De Winter.
Napoli forward Giacomo Raspadori is a major target for Inter. Then, Como’s Nico Paz would be the “dream” signing for the Nerazzurri this summer.
These players are not proven ones in high-level football. Yes we need young talents, but we primarily need established quality. Plus I have questions about their technical capabilities. Ricci is a slow player for example.
miki was always perceived as slow, trust in the process, I think Simone saw something in them, also Marotta won’t okay the transfer if it’s more harm than good
Oh please, at this stage, to further improve we need the likes of Tonali, Ederson or Hugo Larsson, not Ricci. You can’t go twice in the UCL final and then pretend that the improvement will come from Ricci.
