Former AC Milan player, Alessandro Costacurta, was a guest in the Sky Sport studios, and applauds Inter’s market movements after the closing of the Rafinha deal with Barcelona. Here are his words: “I want to say well done to Inter, the Brazilian remains a risky bet but we are talking about a potentially world-class player. Maybe he is not as good as his brother, but he is a player who can make things happen in a match and brings Inter closer to Napoli and Juve. I believe that now Inter does not have many weapons to hurt the opposing team, but his arrival certainly adds a weapon at Spalletti’s disposal. He is not Nainggolan , but I think he’s much better than Nainggolan without the ball, I think he has the great ability to get into the box without a ball, and that is exactly what Inter are missing right now and I think this player will provide what Joao Mario did not”.

I like this comparison with nainggolan while actually nainggolan destroyed his footballing career.. maybe he come to serie a to revenge him haha
Hopefully this Costacurta or what´s his name is spot on with his analysis. We could also use a player who is fast, direct and can dribble to cause hassle among defenders. Joaquin Correa would have been a valid solution, but seems he´s a starter for montella, so maybe someone else then…
Correa is not as good as u think, just so average, not even a good dribbler.
I wish we could bring back Kova, or get someone like Carrasco or Lamela.
Carrasco yes… Lamela is average he can stay where he is Chiesa is way better, that’s the one we should go for I think Carrasco will be more expensive than Chiesa.
If we get both that will great they are versatile player’s that can play almost everywhere. Especially Chiesa.
Chiesa is a beast, but has a 50M price tag.
I also forgot Verdi, who can become a difference maker in our team.
I’ll pay those 50M for Chiesa it is rumored that those are one of the things that they are going to work for the next transfer window!!!
I’ll pay those 50M for Chiesa any day of the weak.
They Have wasted 40M in J.Mario & Kondogbia 29M in Flopidol.
They are thinking in Raphinha 35M who’s injury prone and last time he actually play was almost a year ago. I saw him recently an his form is bad.
Dalbert was 29M an he hasn’t show anything.
So yeah I’ll invest 50M in someone like Chiesa, who actually makes a difference!!!
Investing 50M on a beast like Chiesa, doesn’t match with our identity to waste millions on flops.
Just look at Gagliardini, the guy costed us about 30M, and is pure shit. Literally is not good at anything!
Gagliardiani is not pure shot he has been stepping up his game, many people like to criticize him because he went to Juventus Vs Barcelona he apologized for that already. He is a box to box not a DM. That he can play there yes. What many of you don’t even know is that he play injure for 35min yesterday, now that’s commitment not many players do that. He was better than Vecino in the last couples of months, what I see here if people do the blind sight towards Valero that after the first 5 games has been struggling.
Better check again Inter identity looks like you have miss the point.
Maybe he is average, I can’t really tell based on seeing him pretty much only on youtube. But as a player type he could be useful. Deulofeu also could add something extra to the attack, just like Carrasco or Lamela.
Yeah Del will be a good addition, I also forgot to mention Verdi. He would be the key of top 4 finish.
All these names are impossible right now because Inter can only offer loan with option and their clubs won’t go for it. It’s a miracle Barca agreed to let Rafinha go so we should be grateful for all the work done by our directors and Rafinha and his agent. If Rafinha can regain his fitness and form, he’ll be a beast in the hole behind Icardi.
Maybe, but seems like Barca want to offload Deulofeu, although I doubt they want to make another loan with option deal with us. Lamela on loan with option might be possible if Tottenham buy Lucas Moura from PSG as rumored. Sevilla might trade Correa to Brozo, if they manage to get Deulofeu from Barca. All these deals are very iffy, but possible in theory during the last days of mercato,
I´m happy our directors managed to get Rafinha and Lisandro. They are at least trying their best and it´s not easy, like you said, to sign players with basically zero budget.
A Praising from enemy can make you lose objectives
Milan Legend Costacurta — is he joking ?!
