Inter Milan have chosen Ivan Perisic as their solution on the right flank, and Oaktree have now given formal approval.

As a result, the Nerazzurri are free to push ahead with plans to bring the experienced winger back to San Siro.

According to Corriere dello Sport, via FCInter1908, the owners backed the move with a clear objective in mind. Inter want to strengthen the squad ahead of a decisive phase of the Champions League.

Progression to the round of 16 would not be guaranteed if the team are forced into the playoffs. Therefore, the club see experience as a key asset.

Meanwhile, a meeting took place at Inter’s headquarters on Wednesday.

Cristian Chivu also attended. The discussion helped align the coach, directors and ownership on the same strategy.

Inter already hold a basic agreement with Perisic.

Moreover, the Croatian is keen to return to Italy and compete again at the highest level.

However, he must also push with his current club to secure permission to leave.

From a tactical perspective, Chivu values Perisic’s versatility. Inter would mainly use him to cover the gap on the right following Denzel Dumfries’ injury.

At the same time, he could operate on the left.

This would allow Federico Dimarco to rest and keep Carlos Augusto available as cover for Alessandro Bastoni in defence.
