Sommer, Darmian, Acerbi, de Vrij and Mkhitaryan: these are the main names whose contracts with Inter are expiring at the end of this season. Until a few weeks ago, it seemed that all of them could leave the club at once, but in reality the situation is still evolving.
After the Coppa Italia final won against Lazio, president Marotta confirmed that there will be some departures also for age reasons, but for at least two of these five names the future is not decided: according to Calciomercato.it, there are ongoing talks with both de Vrij and Mkhitaryan to evaluate the possibility of extending their contracts for another year. For the Armenian, in particular, it will also depend on his desire to continue or, alternatively, to retire. But Chivu (and Kolarov) hold him in high regard.
Sommer’s stay is unlikely, although sources in Switzerland do not rule it out. Meanwhile, for Acerbi and Darmian, departure seems inevitable.
