Despite the firm denials from Piero Ausilio ahead of the January transfer window, Inter is actually examining a series of possible candidates for the right flank. The performances of Luis Henrique have so far failed to convince both Cristian Chivu and the Nerazzurri management, prompting careful reflection ahead of the January transfer market.

In this regard, a new name linked to Inter is Marco Palestra. The right winger from Atalanta, currently on loan at Cagliari, has attracted the attention of several Serie A clubs and beyond. In recent weeks, the Nerazzurri club as well, as reported by Corriere dello Sport, has started to follow him with interest.

These are the latest updates according to the Roman newspaper: “Inter’s directors have been impressed by the numbers of the 2005-born player and, even more, by his personality: even against Juventus he dominated his flank, showing all his qualities such as dribbling, speed, and a confidence that put Kostic in trouble.”

At the end of the season, the boy will return to Atalanta, which will find itself with a valuable asset. If in 2023 even 15 million was not enough to convince the Dea to sell him, now his valuation has risen to at least 40 million. The young defender has had admirers abroad for years, especially in the Premier League: several scouts, including those of Tiago Pinto at Bournemouth, have followed him both at home and away, even with the Under 21 National Team jersey.
