Inter Milan are pushing strongly for Tarik Muharemovic as part of a planned defensive overhaul, and they believe their relationship with Sassuolo could prove decisive.
According to Corriere dello Sport, Inter expect major changes at the back next season.
Several experienced players, including Francesco Acerbi, Stefan de Vrij, Yann Sommer and Matteo Darmian, are nearing the end of their contracts.
Muharemovic fits the profile Inter want. He turns 23 at the end of February, brings physical presence and uses his left foot comfortably, an important detail with only Alessandro Bastoni as a natural left-sided option once Acerbi departs.
Sassuolo reportedly value him at €25–30 million, a figure close to the financial parameters set by Inter’s ownership.
Inter Ready To Use Good Sassuolo Relations To Poach Muharemovic
Juventus remain a key factor.
The Bianconeri hold a 50% sell-on clause from a previous deal, which gives them leverage and keeps them closely tied to the defender’s future.
Interest from AFC Bournemouth has also emerged.
Inter, however, hope to rely on the strong working relationship between their president Beppe Marotta and Sassuolo CEO Giovanni Carnevali.
A formula such as an initial loan with an obligation to buy could help structure a deal.
Indeed, one that suits all parties.
With several clubs circling, Inter aim to move early and use their connections to secure one of Serie A’s most promising young defenders.
I hope he goes somewhere else.
inter will not spend 30m on a player. Inter is looking for 5m to 10m dollars kind of players at the moment, oaktree will never ever sanction a $30m dollar deal. Acerbi and the rest of the aging squad contract will be renewed again just for this crazy management to avoid investment on the team
Because aging Acerbi is still better than Sassulo defender and shittiest Bastoni.
Wow. Chill on sandro. And acerbi was taken from lazio. You know he also started in milan.
If you dont like 90% of the team – keep it quiet till the years pass. We actually like our team. Enough with the ragebait.
You must have a really sad life. So much negativity in one poor soul.
Sassuolo player never really click with inter. They better find someone else.
Acerbi was also Sassuolo player.
