Serie A heavyweights Inter Milan have reportedly set their sights on Como winger Martin Baturina.
According to FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri have added another Lariani starlet to their list of targets.
Inter’s interest in Nico Paz is long-standing.
However, not only is Cesc Fabregas keen to keep him at Como, but Real Madrid also hold a right of first refusal.
Therefore, Inter’s chances of landing the Argentine prodigy are slim, even though their interest seems to be genuine.
Meanwhile, the runaway Serie A leaders have recently identified Paz’s teammate as a potential target ahead of the summer.
Inter Milan Set Sights on Como Winger Martin Baturina
Cristian Chivu’s men were interested in Baturina last summer.
However, Como splashed out around €17 million to sign the 23-year-old, who has impressed in Serie A this season.
Indeed, the Croatian forward has accumulated 20 league appearances, scoring five goals and providing three assists.
Baturina’s remarkable showings at Stadio Giuseppe Sinigaglia have drawn Inter’s attention.
Still, Como won’t let their rising star go for less than €50 million.
That’s a figure that is likely to deter the Nerazzurri from opening talks with the Lariani, though they could revisit the deal if Como soften their stance.
WOW. Susic was a much of a talent as he was but he became so good at Como his value is now 50mil. Are we a club that just can’t develop players to the next level? Why is every player we get become worse?
Well I believe you know the answer… It’s a word that begins with D..
D? Idk what you mean bro.
Its diligence bro.
There is a lot more pressure and competition for spots at Inter. 80,000 fans in the stadium and many more around the world expecting top-level performance every game.
At Como or Lecce, etc., they can play without the whole of Italy analyzing every mistake. At inter, you have one bad game and the whole world knows it and you lose your spot to a guy with a household name and international pedigree.
