Inter Milan are eyeing up Genoa’s Morten Frendrup and Torino’s Samuele Ricci to replace the likes of Davide Frattesi and Kristjan Asllani.
This according to today’s print edition of Rome-based newspaper Corriere dello Sport, via FCInterNews.
Inter Milan are starting to wake up to the reality of the transfer market after yesterday’s Champions League final loss against Paris Saint-Germain.
There is hardly an area of the squad in which the Nerazzurri won’t look to intervene. But midfield is certainly a big one.
Henrikh Mkhitaryan is 36 years of age, and looked physically spent against PSG yesterday. Meanwhile, Hakan Calhanoglu and Nicolo Barella aren’t exactly getting any younger at 31 and 28 respectively.
Then, the Corriere note, both Davide Frattesi and Kristjan Asllani could depart. Neither have looked capable of nailing down a starting spot for themselves.
Inter Eye Up Frendrup & Ricci To Replace Frattesi & Asllani

Inter have already signed Petar Sucic from Dinamo Zagreb. The Croatian international will make the switch this month after signing his deal all the way back in February.
However, Sucic’s arrival won’t be enough. Not least if Inter end up offloading Frattesi, Asllani, or both.
Therefore, the Corriere report, Inter are also plotting other midfield signings.
Firstly, the newspaper anticipate, Genoa’s Morten Frendrup will be a target.
Then. they also report that Inter are still keen on Torino midfielder Samuele Ricci. The Italian international is, however, currently looking close to a move to AC Milan.
I can finally see some fans getting to their senses after years of crap from this management and coach. It’s probably a blessing in disguise that we lost by such a margin. I have been ridiculed by my peers from yesterday and it’s been brutal lol. These guys have no sympathy towards how I feel and the only thing that would make me happy again is to see Inzaghi leave. It may not happen so I guess I’m gonna be like this for the next two weeks until I come to grips with this whole situation.
Not unexpected loss, inter conceded 6 goals against barca, 3 goals against bayern, they just could not cope with fast attackers. PSG has the fastest attackers in europe. They have to buy fast defenders, if not for sommer, they will not be in finals.
Do you think PSG defenders can stop their own three attackers?
no defensive players can stop those three from running havoc even usain bolt or you legally break their legs, now plenty of teams including real madrid liverpool arsenal PSG barcelona without lewi put 3 wingers in front without pure strikers. its just modern football right now thats why those team score so many goals. only inter with 3-5-2 formation can trap them but PSG played smarter than bayern n barca they rarely press high because inter counter attacking, n they also know inter dont have midfielder that can short pass the ball quickly if you notice when lautaro have the ball in inter’s own area the defenders went back n the one who attack him are the midfielders, such as vitinha or fabian ruiz
anyway no formation can stop 433 with three speedy and technically gifted wingers rotate one into another
its only 352 its only inzaghi but the thing is he doesnt have the midfielders that can make inter win ball possession everytime inter meet them. the key is the midfielders, i dont know sucic is like brozo or not but it seems that he is not (based on youtube
conclusion ; inter need the strongest midfielders that can win them ball possession in those games
n i believe they can find them though it will take time. brozo sensi and barella were close to perfect but unfortunately sensi was like broken glass.
what a load of rubbish players we are after. These are serie B material. Inter deserve better!!! Where’s the money?! We need to start to spend money or else we are not going to win anything next season!!!
Why Inter didn’t make Frattesi as Mkhitaryan’s successor?

Ricci is slow, Frendrup is not even bench material. Not what Inter need to strengthen in midfield.
Agree completely. Last night loss shows that the players on board do not match the technical ability of big European team’s.
Inter must go for players that meet these characteristics: speed, physicality, technical ability/ skill.
We need wingers who can take on defenders( no offense to Dumfries). Even the proposed signing of Zalewski doesn’t excite me much. Also, we need an overhaul in midfield with the exception of maybe Barella. In attack, keep Thurman and Martinez, sell the others. The defense should see only Bastoni as a untouchable.
I believe the club has significant funds to at least make an attempt at getting quality players. Let’s avoid slow and mediocre serie A players like Frendrup, ricci etc and go for players like Fermin Lopez, Inaki Williams…or alternatively look to our primavera for youth and skill as is done in barcelona
