Inter market, a new name pops up to take Sommer’s place

Inter is grappling with a major dilemma. The club is reasoning about who can take Sommer’s place next season. The almost 37-year-old Swiss goalkeeper has an expiring contract and, almost certainly, will not stay at the Nerazzurri next season.

The Nerazzurri club has Josep Martinez on its roster who, at the moment, does not seem to give the right guarantees to become the heir to the current Swiss number one. A different profile would be sought, already ready for a role that is certainly not easy. Among the many papabili there would be, according to Gazzetta dello Sport, the name of Vicario.

The Tottenham goalkeeper is not having a great time at Spurs. Booed against Fulham for a mistake he made, the national team goalkeeper is reportedly considering a return to Serie A.

L’Inter would be monitoring the situation, so as to understand whether or not there are conditions to try to convince Tottenham to sell Vicario (he is under contract with the English club until June 2028). For personality and international experience, the 29-year-old former goalkeeper of, among others, Cagliari and Empoli, could be the right profile for Inter, though there would be many other names in play.
