The agent of Monza goalkeeper Alessio Cragno has denied that Inter Milan are in talks to sign the 29-year-old.

Speaking to Italian news outlet FCInterNews after a meeting at the Nerazzurri’s headquarters, the Italian international’s agent Grazziano Battistini was effusive about the nature of his discussions with the Nerazzurri, although he suggested that Cragno would be worthy of a move to Inter.

Cragno’s future looks uncertain despite the fact that, technically, he only signed for Monza this summer.

The Italian joined the Brianzoli on loan from Cagliari last summer. The Lombard team brought him in from Cagliari as a reinforcement for their first ever season in Serie A.

However, ex-Inter keeper Michele Di Gregorio ended up keeping his spot in goal after helping Monza to promotion.

Di Gregorio was one of the outstanding goalkeepers in Serie A last season. Therefore, Cragno hardly got a look in.

Monza signed the 29-year-old on a permanent basis, purely because of a purchase obligation in his loan deal.

However, a move to a different club could be on the cards for Cragno given his lack of playing time behind Di Gregorio.

Inter would be one of the clubs that it would be natural to link with Cragno.

The Azzurri man has been on Inter’s radar in the past.

Moreover, the fact that the Nerazzurri must replace both Andre Onana and Samir Handanovic this summer means that they will have to cast their net far and wide in their search for goalkeeping signings.

Bayern Munich veteran Yann Sommer is one player on the Nerazzurri’s radar, as are Anatoliy Trubin and Emil Audero.

Then, the Nerazzurri are keeping their options. Players like Giorgi Mamardashvili, Keylor Navas, Hugo Lloris, and Marco Carnesecchi are also on their radar.

However, a reignition of Inter’s pursuit of Cragno could present another option.

However, as far as that being an active pursuit, the player’s agent has put the brakes on such suggestions.

Asked whether Cragno was on the agenda in talks with Inter, he replied “We talked about football and footballers. There were no negotiations though.”

As for whether the 29-year-old Italian international would be of sufficient quality to play for Inter, Battistini replied “For me, yes.”

And on whether a move could happen, he was once again tight-lipped. “You’ll have to ask someone else,” Cragno’s agent said.
