Premier League side Bournemouth have reportedly set their sights on Inter Milan outcast Luis Henrique.
According to L’Interista, the Cherries have prepared a formal offer for the Brazilian winger, whose future at San Siro is hanging by a thread.
Inter Milan paid Marseille around €24 million to sign Luis Henrique last summer.
Furthermore, the Nerazzurri fought tooth and nail to beat Bundesliga powerhouse Bayern Munich to the 24-year-old’s signature.
Despite signing a long-term contract until 2030, the former Botafogo star could leave Serie A in the coming months.
Indeed, Cristian Chivu’s men are reportedly open to offloading Henrique if they receive a suitable offer.
Bournemouth Set to Offer €25m for Inter Milan Flop Luis Henrique
Inter had thought Henrique would be a long-term replacement for Denzel Dumfries.
However, the Brazilian ace has fallen short of expectations in his first season at San Siro.
Except for occasional flashes of promise, Henrique has largely struggled to replicate his Ligue 1 form, netting just one goal in 36 competitive appearances.
Despite his lackluster campaign, he could earn another big-money transfer this summer, with Bournemouth ready to take him to the Premier League.
Furthermore, the Cherries are ready to put a decent-looking €25 million bid on the table.
This will all depend on if inter switches to a 433, and stop using wingbacks. He would flourish in his natural role as a right winger,he can be backup to Diaby if he is signed.
The current Inter tactic is not suitable for any fast pace wingers. Not bad for him to switch a team.
A coach that favors high intensity football doesn’t suit wingers? Man what? Lol… I would be more than surprised if we stick with 3-5-2 next season. Italy missed out on three world cups because of mentalities similar to yours.
If he was more decisive in his final ball and better defensively he would be great. Our system is actually perfect for speedy wingers on the right and thats the only reason he hasnt been a complete failure
Look at Cancelo who is similar to Henrique. We were salivating at the thought of having him at Inter. A younger version of “Dani Alves” like I consider him to be is immediately cast aside because of our poor judgement. I hope if Henrique is sold, he goes to Bayern in a few seasons and does wonders over there. We really suck when it comes to keeping proper scouted talents, case in point, Coutinho & Kovacic (our most recent blunders. This team and fan base can be so frustrating at times smh
But Henrique is a winger and Cancelo is a wingback wtf?
I have to agree with you guys. Henrique have to go. He did what he could while denzel was out, but he cannot defend and is too shy to dribble or cross… what else is there to do on the wing then
Inter will make a mistake if they don’t take the first meaningful offer for this guy. He’s not Inter material and never will be
You will see the mistake when he becomes world class in a team that appreciates him. Henrique can play both as a winger and an attacking midfielder. If you don’t have creative eyes or vision it won’t appear to be so obvious. Also as a defender with proper support he could be extremely good but again, the ignorance of our supporters won’t allow this to be seen. Chivu is a smart enough coach to make whatever is best for the team and that’s that.
Coutinho also was a world class, but he couldn’t fit in with inter strat, so he left.
same world class as asslani, EPL teams gave 25mlns for him and we said no, it turn out good for us 😀
what you smoke. buddy. you should check Henrique stats in fotmob.
You’re probably the only one left on this site to defend Luis, he’s the prime example of failed signing on position of wingback. No visible improvement at all during the whole season, maybe if Chivu decides to change the play with wingers he’ll stay as backup, but even so he hasn’t shown qualities of a winger this season either, no dribbling, 1 on 1 play, crossing terrible…
Sell immediately……
