Luis Henrique has been unable to replicate his Olympique Marseille form since joining Inter Milan in the summer transfer window.
According to Gianluca Di Marzio via FCinter1908, the San Siro giants have no intention of selling the Brazilian despite his dreadful form.
Inter splashed out approximately €23 million to sign the 23-year-old following his impressive season in Ligue 1.
Indeed, alongside Mason Greenwood, Luis Henrique was one of the most influential figures at the Stade Velodrome.
However, the Brazilian star has failed to adapt to life in Serie A.
Inter Milan Reluctant to Sell Luis Henrique in January
Inter coach Cristian Chivu has nailed Henrique to the bench this season.
Moreover, forced to play understudy to Denzel Dumfries, Henrique has made just two Serie A starts so far.
Yet, his showings in those two appearances hardly helped his push for increased minutes.
Therefore, Henrique will not be Chivu’s first option on the right wing when Inter take on AC Milan this weekend.
Still, the Nerazzurri are not considering offloading their flop just yet.
what position does diouf play?
Yeah this is fair but diouf idk he is too lazy
Selling him with only 6 months at the club would be criminal. Just take a look at how Inter managed Di Marco and the amount of loan spells he had. Henrique has been underperforming but to write him off so soon and not at least try him in other positions would not look good on Chivu’s part, I hold him in such high regard and doubt he would be making this decision on his own.
Agree, Henrique has shown his desire to play and fight, so he should be given time. On the other hand, Diouf has shown an extreme level of laziness and should be moved on from.
Maybe Diouf is the very definition of a player who’s not at the required level to play at a top team. In fact I don’t he would play even for a midtable serie a team. It was a gamble and it didn’t work out so better to move on now and get proper reinforcement or drag the situation further. Henrique can at least play with the team which is the minimum requirement
