L’Inter is looking for an attacking winger, Diouf is convincing but a reinforcement is needed

The search for a wing-back continues to characterize Inter‘s transfer market. After Dumfries moved to Real, the Nerazzurri club first saw the Palestra deal fall through, then the one for Khalaili. Different reasons, same outcome: the club is still looking for the right profile for that role.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, although the Frenchman represents a pleasant surprise and has shown appreciable qualities, the numbers on the right flank remain incomplete. The youngster has confirmed the tactical abilities of a coach who is not afraid to experiment and knows how to turn needs into solutions, but the squad still requires an intervention.

The management on Viale della Liberazione has become convinced that the ideal profile for the right flank should have more offensive than defensive characteristics. In any case, there is no urgency: the club knows well that the summer transfer window can offer interesting opportunities even in the final stages, as the Akanji case shows.

“What is certain is that we have three fifths now, Carlos Augusto could do it too but I prefer him as the third in defense. The transfer window is still long, we need to be patient,” Chivu said in recent days. No rush, then, but a clear idea of the type of player to identify after the setbacks with Palestra and Khalaili.
