Inter’s priority for the incoming transfer market is clear: to give Chivu a reinforcement on the right wing. There are two names at the top of the list, with different characteristics and contractual situations.
Djed Spence remains a concrete target. Tottenham values the player between 30 and 35 million euros, but there is a tactical issue: with the Spurs he has mostly played on the left, while the Nerazzurri are looking for a player to operate on the opposite side.
The alternative is called Moussa Diaby. According to Quotidiano Sportivo, the Frenchman has been followed by Inter since January and has said he is willing to reduce the 15 million net salary per season he receives at Al-Ittihad. The problem is reaching an agreement with the Saudi club: the Nerazzurri’s offer of 20 million plus Asllani was not convincing. Bayer Leverkusen is also following Diaby, with the player’s approval but still without Al-Ittihad’s go-ahead. The Germans’ position has strengthened after the injury to Roger Fernandes, who could have represented an internal alternative.
On the Curtis Jones front, Quotidiano Sportivo clarifies that the deal depends on departures. The midfielder is highly appreciated by Chivu, but before making a move in that area of the pitch, Asllani, Frattesi, and Massolin—all considered players to be sold—would need to be placed elsewhere. The signing of a winger therefore remains the absolute priority at the moment.
