Interest in Daniel Sturridge is becoming more appealing for the Nerazzurri. He was reportedly offered to Inter by Liverpool a few days ago and now management is seriously considering bringing him to Milan, as long as there is the option to do a loan with a redemption option.
Gazzetta dello Sport claims that “the Nerazzurri are considering him, regardless of Rafinha and his role in the team, but there is more interest than just from Inter and it is bound to increase as rumours spread. Inter are mainly considering him due to the possibility that Eder leaves.”
The Italian-Brazilian, who arrived from Sampdoria two seasons ago, seems to be becoming unhappy with his role as Mauro Icardi’s first reserve and may seek more playing time elsewhere.
Inter must also consider the development cycle of Andrea Pinamonti in this as well.
“The prestigious academy product, born in 1999, is currently being followed by seven Italian clubs, two Spanish and one English club for a loan. This is a situation that must be dealt with, with absolute care for the players sake but also to keep the lurking Juventus away, who would never let such a promising Italian talent go to waste” – as the historic pink newspaper makes apparent. The idea of losing Pinamonti to the Bianconeri is unfathomable to many but not impossible.
With the possible exit of Eder, Pinamonti would take his position as first reserve to Icardi, while also remaining at the disposal of Stefano Vecchi for the Primavera.
Sturridge came to Liverpool by way of Chelsea in 2013.
Since that time, Sturridge has
scored 64 goals along with 24 assists in 133 appearances for the Reds.
In his first season with Liverpool, the Birmingham-born striker
scored 25 goals and had nine assists in 33 appearances.
The next season he has sidelined with a thigh strain and a hamstring injury.
He returned in the 2015/16 season to
make 25 appearances and score 13 goals,
but did suffer hip and knee injuries over the course of the season. Last season, Sturridge had 27 appearances, scoring seven goals and three assists.
somebody very smart (ass) gave eder new contract recently.
ausilio was it you ?
lol. when they can raise cou and leave this man behind, well…what can i say
Doesn’t sturridge want more playing time? don’t mind him as vice icardi with a dry loan
A bad player goes, and another bad player comes in. Inter kinda deal.
I wouldn’t even think about this one. Go with Pinamonti. We should everything to keep this boy happy. He is our future.
pinamonti need playing time in serie a. certainly inter is not the right place now. he simply not ready. we need to loan him out or sell him with buyback clause.
just loan, but just to
A VERY QUALIFIED CLUB AND COACH THERE, to be sure he will grow and play.
