Yuto Nagatomo is an all but confirmed player of Galatasaray and will be until June 30th 2018. The Japanese international is already in Istanbul, ready to sign his contract.
Meanwhile FcInterNews.it has learnt the exact formula of the deal between the Turkish club and Inter. It’s a completely dry loan, with no option or obligation redemption clause. However the Cimbom will have to pay an initial loan payment of 1.5 million into the Nerazurri coffers, for the services of the Japanese full-back who hopes the game time will secure his place at the Russian World Cup in the Summer.
While the rumoured departure of Marcelo Brozovic will have a negative effect on Inter’s already thin squad depth, Nagatomo’s loss is not of any concern, with Dalbert, Santon, D’Ambrosio and Joao Cancelo all able to fill his role. But should a sudden injury crisis occur, Marco Sala awaits his chance after promising displays with the Primavera.
1,5 million up front might be crucial to get eg. another midfielder on loan. So well done to the management since he is not vital by any means, although I believe he is slightly better than Santon and Dalbert at the moment.
Yeah yeah he’s a nice guy and all and a good professional etc etc.., and Rano too btw, and many people gonna miss him and dont understand the hate…
But honestly, we all know they are mid table team player along with a couple other players in our roster. If we had some serious directors before Sabatini arrived, there’d be no way a player of this level would spend 7 years at a big club… Unless we accept that we’ve become an EL level team and stop aiming for the UCL that is.
So goodbye samurai, thank you for your service and at least playing with your heart always, and hopefully you won’t be back this summer.
Agree.. shame the rest of the players don’t play with their heart… that dilemma…
They should have sent Ausilio packing with him.
