Inter Milan have one goalkeeper target and one goalkeeper target only to replace Yann Sommer, Spurs star Guglielmo Vicario.
The club are already preparing a formal offer for the Tottenham stopper as they plan for life after Yann Sommer, with every other name that has been linked publicly firmly off the table.
According to L’Interista, Inter have only ever had direct contact with Vicario among all the goalkeepers discussed in recent months.
Alisson, Emiliano Martinez, Atubolu and others have never represented genuine alternatives.
Instead, they are names that have circulated externally but have no basis in Inter’s actual planning.
Vicario himself has already given his blessing to a return to Italy.
He wants to come home and Inter are his preferred destination.
Inter Prepare Four-Year Deal For Sommer Successor As Spurs Fee For Vicario Hinges On Relegation
The club are now ready to put a formal offer on the table.
Indeed, a four-year contract worth €3.2 million net per season.
The remaining obstacle is agreeing a fee with Tottenham.
The expected cost sits at below €20 million.
With the final figure likely to depend on whether Spurs are relegated from the Premier League.
It is a scenario that would significantly reduce their negotiating power.
The only other goalkeeper who genuinely interested the Inter hierarchy was Roma’s Mile Svilar.
Had the Serbian been available, he would have been the primary candidate.
But Roma have no intention of selling and Svilar himself wants to stay.
Therefore ending that conversation before it could begin.
For Inter, the path is clear. There is only Vicario.
