Inter Transfer Market: Marotta Rejects €40 Million Offer for the Nerazzurri’s Star Player

Inter has rejected a very generous offer for Serbian midfielder Aleksandar Stankovic, who has returned to the Nerazzurri after a very successful season in the Belgian league, where he was named the league’s top young talent of the year. Born in 2005 and a product of Inter’s youth academy, he was evaluated by Cristian Chivu during the first preseason friendlies and received a full endorsement: he will be part of the team next season.

Inter’s plans are clear, so much so that the Nerazzurri executives have rejected an official offer of 40 million euros made by Brentford in recent days. This was reported by *La Gazzetta dello Sport*. The player himself, convinced of his future in Milan, has also turned down the offer from the Premier League and can’t wait to carve out an important role on the Italian champions’ roster.

Chivu is testing him out as Calhanoglu’s backup, and his confidence in the player is unwavering. Inter has secured its star player, unlike Davide Frattesi, who remains on the market should the right offer come along (options involving Juventus and Roma remain open).

In recent hours, rumors of a swap deal with Juventus involving Nico Gonzalez have gained traction: the Argentine, who returned to Turin after Atlético Madrid did not exercise its buyout option, is said to have been proposed to Inter by the player’s own representatives. For Spalletti, Gonzalez is not untouchable, and the deal could move forward in the coming days, especially if Inter were to lose out on Moussa Diaby, who is currently in negotiations with Bayer Leverkusen.

Aleksandar Stankovic, son of Dejan Stankovic, played 54 games in all competitions last season with Bruges, scoring nine goals and playing a key role in winning the Belgian league title.
