GdS: Granada decline a Murillo move in January

Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio has done a good job this winter transfer window in securing the services of Podolski, Shaquiri and Brozovic all on loan deals. I believe he should have focused on Inters weakness’s which are our defense and in midfield, after he had strengthen the teams offense with the arrivals of Podolski and Shaquiri. Jeisson Murillo is a hard working central back that I believe will come in the summer but with Granada fighting to stay in the La Liga The Pozzo Family(Owners of Watford, Udinese and Granada) where unwilling to do business with any club. Ausilio should have done business clubs within the peninsula, focused on players that are playing well in Serie A. He could have turned to another Pozzo family owned club in Udinese, A few of the Udinese players have been a revelation this season in Thomas Heurtaux, Silvan Widmer and Allan. The Frenchmen Heurtaux has been a very versatile player playing in a defensive midfield role and being the main pillar in the heart of the Udinese back line. Silvan Widmer has been mostly playing in his natural right back role but has also been deployed on either side of the pitch in defense and midfield at times and played well. Brazilian Allan his been Udinese’s dynamic midfilder thus far this season with his good tackling skills in the middle of the pitch and had improved his passing and dribbling since coming to Serie A from Vasco Da Gama. I was disappointed we werent able to get Roberto Pereyra last summer on loan from Udinese instead he goes to our arch rivals Juve on loan to fight for a starting 11 spot and to warm the bench in Turin. Ausilo could have also looked into getting Palermo’s Ezequiel Munoz the Argentine has been the backbone of the Sicilian outfits back line and has improved his defensive skills through the years and still a mere 24yr he can still develop into a quality defender for both club and country. Sampdoria’s Roberto Soriano would have been a player Ausilo should have focused on first on bring the young Italian midfielder to the San Siro with him being a main contributor to his clubs success and Italian Coach Antonio Conte calling him up for his national team debut means his stock is rising. I believe the players I mentioned would have brought immediate impact to the Nerazzurri and with there age’s would have continued in the rebuilding project that Thorir wants at the San Siro.

as far as i know his contract won’t expire in the summer, so why is it so sure he will come to Inter in June, according to the author?

I think we’ve got more urgent things to deal with right now than a central defender.

Get a midfielder and a full back, perhaps a forward/striker too. Get Cassano on a 6 month contract with an option to extend, get De Jong for Osvaldo. And try to get Darmian (which is highly unlikely).

Murillo is welcome to join in the summer when Campagnaro leaves and perhaps we sell Ranocchia (if we’re smart).
