Runaway Serie A leaders Inter Milan are preparing for a transitional summer, with numerous first-team stars expected to leave San Siro.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, French striker Marcus Thuram could spearhead the summer exodus.
Despite winning the Scudetto in his first season at the club and becoming a vital member of the team, Thuram’s future in Serie A is up in the air.
Indeed, the 28-year-old has scored just seven goals in the league this season.
Although he has had several injury setbacks, the former Borussia Monchengladbach ace has been unable to replicate last season’s prolific form.
Therefore, he could be on his way out at the end of the season.
Number of Inter Milan Stars Facing Uncertain Futures
In addition to Marcus Thuram, Inter will reportedly evaluate offers for several other first-team stalwarts.
Heavily linked with a move to Barcelona, Alessandro Bastoni could also wave goodbye to San Siro in the summer.
Furthermore, Nicolo Barella’s future at the club is hanging in the balance, as the Italian midfielder continues to falter.
After a failed transfer to Galatasaray last summer, Hakan Calhanoglu could finally complete his move to Istanbul this time around.
Indeed, the Turkish Super Lig giants remain hellbent on luring the 32-year-old to Rams Park.
Meanwhile, Inter are ready to offer Cristian Chivu a contract extension.
