Serie A giants Inter Milan have reportedly turned down a chance to sign Nahuel Molina and Thomas Meunier.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, Piero Ausilio has no interest in bringing the out-of-sorts duo to San Siro.

The Nerazzurri are in the market for a new wingback to replace the injured Denzel Dumfries.

Despite being previously linked with Nahuel Molina, they’re no longer keen on the Atletico Madrid outcast.

Furthermore, Thomas Meunier doesn’t fit the club’s requirements, having turned 34 in September.

Inter had tried to lure Molina to Giuseppe Meazza before the Argentine joined Atletico Madrid in 2022.

Though he is now out of favor at the Metropolitano Stadium, the 27-year-old is no longer considered a viable option.

The same applies to Meunier, who has been a second-choice wingback at Lille since returning to Ligue 1 in 2024.

On the other hand, the Italian heavyweights are reportedly close to signing Hajduk Split prodigy Branimir Mlacic.

Moreover, they’re ready to accelerate their pursuit of Dinamo Zagreb teenager Leon Jakirovic.
