Canadian international winger Tajon Buchahan is set to join Villarreal on a permanent transfer from Inter Milan.
This according to Italian broadcaster SportMediaset, via FCInterNews. They report that the La Liga club will pay Inter a fee of €9 million, plus a percentage of resale.
Tajon Buchanan is once again an Inter Milan player after the end of his loan spell at Villarreal.
The Canadian international left the Nerazzurri on loan during the January transfer window. Villarreal had an option to sign him on a permanent basis, but have not exercised it.
Buchanan may be have returned to Inter. But he hardly has a place in the Nerazzurri’s plans for next season.
Therefore, Inter have aimed to sell the 26-year-old once and for all this summer.
Tajon Buchanan To Join Villarreal From Inter Milan
A few clubs showed an interest in signing Buchanan this summer.
The likes of Brentford and Eintracht Frankfurt reportedly eyed up a deal.
Then, Sassuolo had also seemingly been close to signing Buchanan, keeping the Canadian in Serie A.
However, it is in fact Villarreal who will be bringing Buchanan back on a permanent basis after all.
The Spaniards came forward with a new offer for the Canadian. And according to Mediaset, the two clubs finalized a deal today.
The broadcaster reports that Villarreal will pay Inter €9 million for Buchanan, as well as a sell-on fee.
It doesn’t matter at this point, but I would have kept Tajon if his price is $9m
Seems like a good backup wingback option compared to Luis Henrique who we bought for $25m
In all honesty, we can’t possible judge Henrique yet. He has barely played any minutes, and even when he did, it was with half a B team. Give the guy at least a couple of months once the season starts. He was solid for Marseille
I think Koni is the man. Can play multiple possitions. Not his first rhodeo(like Leoni) and i dont understand why are you so hyped about a 50 mil 27 years old attacker with the output of thuram. We have that. And we got it for free. But hey. We’re all different. Just like people who didnt saw R.Carlos pottential in defence and swap him for Ivan.
we only need CD and leoni is better at that.
Well, some good news on the selling front at last… so between Buchanon and Stankovic we’ve brought in nearly €20 million… hopefully Taremi and Asllani will be leaving fairly soon too….
Leoni and Koni. Don’t care that much about Lookman when there’s Pio, Toro, Tukis and Bonny. Lesgooo
Koni? no thank you. lookman is the missing piece of the puzzle the link between midfield and strikers that we sorely missed last season. yes to lookman, yes to leoni but not at 40mils for a largely unproven 18yr old. I’d rather wait another year and get dragusin from Tottenham or calafiori from arsenal.
so what? you wanna stay with 40 year old acerbi?
