Inter market, full speed ahead for big comeback. For the door, Martinez loses altitude
Inter on the hunt for the right outside back: Denzel Dumfries will not return for a month and a half and Luis Henrique continues not to convince the fans, the management and especially Cristian Chivu. The Romanian coach is asking for a right outside player who gives guarantees and, above all, who is ready to play immediately, and who can adapt to the Nerazzurri’s 3-5-2 module. Among the names made in recent days is standing out that of a great former, Ivan Perisic, who has said he is open to a return to Italy.
PSV Eindhoven is barricading itself not to let him leave mid-season, but if the Dutch are eliminated from the Champions League (in the event of a defeat against Bayern in the next round it will be certain) they could also consider selling the 36-year-old outside back. Perisic would perfectly match the identikit made by Chivu and could arrive for a not exaggerated sum. The Croatian player earns just over half a million euros a year at PSV and is set to expire in 2027.
Perisic has played six seasons in the Nerazzurri, and it would be the second return to Milan for him after the one in 2020. In total with the shirt of the meneghino club he played 254 games, scoring 55 goals. As for the goalkeeper question, the track for Emiliano Martinez, who will leave Aston Villa in the summer and has been approached by Inter in recent days, is cooling down. Inter executives are looking for a younger profile than the world champion Argentine, and their first target is Guglielmo Vicario.
The Tottenham goalkeeper is not having a happy moment at Spurs and would gladly return to Italy, especially if Inter were the caller. Donnarumma’s deputy in the national team has already been approached in the past by the Nerazzurri before moving to London. In his career he has also played with Cagliari, Venezia, Empoli, Perugia and Fontanafredda, while he has defended the national team’s goal on five occasions.
Yann Sommer will leave the team in the summer and Inter’s managers want stability in goal, and they are aiming for a goalkeeper who can guarantee multiple seasons at a high level between the posts.
