Alexis Sanchez blocks Inter’s market.
Inter, market
Tajon Buchanan will make history as the first Canadian footballer to wear the Inter shirt. Although it will take a few more days before we see him land in Milan, conduct medical examinations and complete the transfer process. But there's no reason to worry, everything will be in time for him to breathe in the atmosphere of the San Siro and watch the game against Hellas Verona, either near the field or live in the stands. The outright purchase of Buchanan, for about 7 million euros from Bruges, plus 3 million in bonuses, closed a deal strongly desired by Sporting Director Ausilio, who had been following the player for some time.
The sudden acceleration on negotiations è was also dictated by Cuadrado's injury, but it had the beneficial effect of avoiding the intrusion of dangerous competitors. Buchanan’s confirmation increases the level of competitiveness of the Nerazzurri team, which is counting on him as another piece of the mosaic that will bring the showdown at the end of the championship.
Inter's January market operation seems to be the only one planned, barring any last-minute surprises. In fact, there are no other operations on the horizon at the moment. Even in the offensive department, despite Arnautovic’s rise, doubts and uncertainties remain regarding Sanchez’s position. Inzaghi thus finds himself with a limited squad of players, operations on the offensive front are ruled out by the club, which claims to already have all the necessary resources at its disposal. However, if there were additional resources, they would not hesitate to act. The only possibility could be the departure of Sanchez, but the Chilean seems intent on finishing the season in Milan.
If, on the other hand, he should change his mind by the end of January, the situation could change. Still, there remains the big problem of real alternatives available to Inter. The arrival of Muriel, who expires with Atalanta in June, could be a solution, but it depends on the availability of patron Percassi.
