Inter Milan could reportedly offer Stefan de Vrij as a counterpart in a deal to sign Fiorentina wingback Dodo.
According to La Nazione via FCInter1908, the Nerazzurri could use the Dutchman as a makeweight to lower La Viola’s asking price.
After losing the race to Joao Cancelo’s signature to Barcelona, Inter have turned their attention toward Dodo.
Indeed, Marco Palestra’s high price tag has deterred the San Siro giants from opening talks with Atalanta.
Therefore, La Viola’s long-serving right-back has emerged as the most viable target for Cristian Chivu’s side.
Inter Milan to Offer De Vrij as Counterpart in Deal to Sign Fiorentina Star Dodo
With Luis Henrique continuing to disappoint, Inter must return to the market to address the right-back issue.
Indeed, Denzel Dumfries remains in the pits and is unlikely to return to action before March.
On the other hand, Stefan de Vrij has less than six months left to run on his contract.
Moreover, Inter are reluctant to offer them fresh terms. However, they’re also unwilling to sell him to Al-Hilal.
As such, they could use the 33-year-old to convince Fiorentina to sell Dodo.
