The winter market session ended several days ago, but some hidden events and backstage happenings that did not materialize are still emerging. During the last episode of Pressing, the well-known Ivan Zazzaroni revealed a surprising one related to both Milan and Inter.
According to revelations by the director of the Corriere dello Sport, Joao Felix’s agents – before reaching an agreement with Milan – had offered their client to Inter on several occasions, but as is well known, the Nerazzurri could not make other market moves in attack without the exits of fringe players like Correa and Arnautovic.
The first five will do very well because he is a real player, then after that, he always fades. […] Maybe though, Joao Felix after twenty-five years finds the consistency he has never had. They tried to sell him also to Inter, they offered him two hundred times, he is a player who has hurt Chelsea. These were the words of Zazzaroni, revealing the backstage market scene about the Portuguese playmaker who just landed in Serie A.
