Inter Milan are reportedly considering a move to sign Genoa midfielder Morten Frendrup before the transfer window closes.
This according to Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that the Nerazzurri could aim to sign the Dane after their pursuit of Manu Kone came to nothing.
Inter Milan are already fairly well-stocked in midfield.
However, there are questions about whether the Nerazzurri have the right profiles for new coach Cristian Chivu.
Inter have a number of midfielders who suit the 3-5-2 system well.
However, Chivu has been trying to change the Nerazzurri over to a 3-4-2-1 formation. And there aren’t many players who really fit into the double pivot of such s shape.
Inter Consider Move For Genoa Midfielder Morten Frendrup
The logic was clear from Inter when they made an offer for Roma midfielder Manu Kone.
The Frenchman is a natural holding midfielder. He can win and keep possession deep on the pitch.
However, the Nerazzurri have not managed to sign Kone. Roma decided to reject their advances for the 24-year-old.
Therefore, reports the Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter could look elsewhere to bolster their midfield with a similar profile.
And according to the newspaper, Genoa’s Morten Frendrup remains an option in this regard.
Freundrup isn’t a sexy name, or a glamorous signing, but his stats as a midfield enforcer are actually second to none in Serie A…. the problem is that because we’ve left things so late, Genoas response would simply be “Sorry, but we’ve no time to find a replacement… but thanks for Carboni by the way! He’s really good!!! Surprised you didn’t keep him as you want an attacking midfielder, and got yourself some defenders? Good luck….”
