Buchanan, positive signs for Inter.
Buchanan towards Inter
Buchanan is getting closer and closer to Inter Milan thanks to new contacts recently made on the Milan-Bruges axis. Dialogues between the interested parties are ongoing and developing fast, so much so that the Canadian was not summoned for the league match played yesterday by the Belgian club on the Molenbeek field, after two consecutive benches with Bodo Glimt and Gent. Beyond physical reasons, it seems that his exclusion is linked to the market negotiations with Inter. This news is confirmed by Belgian sources, who report that negotiations will continue unabated in the coming days.
The deal è is underway and Inter has the confidence to bring it to fruition soon, thus granting Inzaghi the player by the first decade of January. Following recent contacts made, Bruges has è shown willingness to consider the purchase formula proposed by Inter, that is, a deferred purchase with loan and obligation of redemption, provided, however, that the loan is not free and compensation is paid. It is therefore clear that Zhang's approval is needed in order to finalize the negotiation. This is because, at least until Cuadrado's injury, no investments were planned in the winter market. Consequently, it would be an "out-of-budget" operation, which è clearly justified by a precise technical necessity. Inzaghi and his staff agree on the necessity of having a replacement, despite Darmian’s good performance and the recent growth of Bisseck, who has proved himself up to the tasks assigned to him.
The Canadian player has already welcomed Inter's offer of a five-year contract and is already looking forward to the Italian league. The clubà s will is to have a valuable starter in the squad, not just a replacement for Cuadrado. Moreover, this investment could be seen as a precaution against the possible failure of Dumfries’ renewal negotiations, which are still pending. In any case, Buchanan represents a clear message that Inter is looking ahead and planning for the present and future of its right flank. In case Dumfries does not renew, the solution would be similar to what è was adopted two years ago with Gosens and Perisic. Inzaghi is anxiously waiting, considering the fact that injuries in recent times have reduced the Nerazzurri’s squad and, consequently, the rotation options, despite a busy schedule. Buchanan has already received approval from the technical staff: now the team is just waiting for the completion of the negotiations to be able to officially say "welcome" to the newcomer.
