Against Juventus, Inter was left dry for the second time in three games. This is a rarity for Inter’s attack, as Simone Inzaghi’s team is often very productive offensively. However, the game at Allianz Stadium has reignited the debate around Inter’s attack.
With Thuram in precarious condition, Taremi had an important opportunity as a starter, but the Iranian was not able to take advantage of it, proving once again that the offensive substitutes are not capable of making up for the off days of the starters as seen with Lautaro Martinez. This observation will also have consequences in terms of transfers.
Next summer, in fact, the offensive department available to Inzaghi could be almost completely overhauled. The departures of Arnautovic and Correa, both at the end of their contracts, are practically certain. But even Taremi’s future at Inter is far from guaranteed.
The Iranian arrived last summer, on a free transfer, with great expectations, which have so far not been met. Only 3 goals this season, 2 of which were penalties, and many performances not entirely convincing for a striker with his resume. His contract is until 2027, but his stay will be a topic of discussion.
Taremi’s departure too would change more than half of the current offensive department, forcing the executives to make substantial interventions. The certainties are Lautaro Martinez and Thuram, with Inter intending to eliminate the termination clause from his contract to secure his stay.
The rest will be entrusted to the transfer market. On Inter’s list are Castro from Bologna, Krstovic from Lecce, Yuri Alberto from the Corinthians, and David, who will be released from Lille on a free transfer. Not only that, some evaluations will also have to be made regarding the future of Valentin Carboni and Francesco Pio Esposito. What is certain is that Inter’s next attack could look very different from today’s.
