Inter Milan will soon intensify their pursuit of Valencia center-half Cristhian Mosquera to bolster their defensive options.
Per Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Serie A runners-up have devised a strategy to sign the 20-year-old.
Parma starlet Giovanni Leoni tops Inter’s wishlist, but the Crusaders are reluctant to negotiate his sale this summer.
Indeed, they’d ideally keep hold of the 18-year-old for at least one more season.
Meanwhile, Cristian Chivu is desperate for a reunion as he seeks reinforcements at the back.
Inter Milan Plan to Accelerate Talks for Cristhian Mosquera
Leoni’s arrival would set Inter back around €30 million, making it a complicated deal, given the current financial state.
However, the Nerazzurri hope to leverage the youngster’s desire to work under Chivu to get Parma to sanction the move.
Furthermore, Beppe Marotta understands the basic principles of transfer dealings.
He realizes the importance of a position of strength.
Therefore, he plans to pursue Cristhian Mosquera only after convincing Parma to sell Leoni.
Mosquera’s contract at Valencia expires next summer, which only adds to Inter’s confidence in luring him to the San Siro.
Marotta and ausillio I believe deliberately enjoys wasting time closing on deals trying to save 200k agent fees and the rest, they had the chance to close on Leoni last season for 5m and somehow allowed the deal to slip through their fingers. Now they are talking about trying to sign a flopped striker for 40m from Manchester United when you have pio esposito for free and you can invest that money another solid midfielder to replace some of the older players.
sometimes its just a decoy from their actual target. i sugget you dont belive it this kind of moves until ypu see the player in inter hq.
Fuck this management. Why is everything so slow ffs!
Mosquera is going to Arsenal. Oaktree&Marotta waited too much to get a deal done.
