Tarik Muharemovic has emerged as a priority defensive target for Inter Milan ahead of next season, but Juventus currently hold a key advantage in the race.

The Sassuolo centre-back will line up against the Nerazzurri this weekend.

However, his performances in his first full Serie A campaign have already placed him firmly on the radar of several top clubs.

Inter have identified him as a leading candidate to reinforce their back line.

Indeed, impressed by his composure, physical presence and room for growth.

However, Juventus’ long-standing interest comes with a structural edge.

The Bianconeri are believed to hold a 50% sell-on clause on Muharemovic.

This gives Juventus financial leverage in any future transfer negotiations.

That clause means Juventus could benefit directly from a future sale.

Or, alternatively, potentially negotiate more favourable terms if they decide to move for the defender themselves.

As a result, while Inter may be strongly interested, they do not control the situation in the same way.

With both Italian giants monitoring his progress closely, Muharemovic’s future could become one of the more intriguing domestic transfer battles of the upcoming window.
