Inter is closely following Alessandro Romano, a midfielder born in 2006 from Cagliari who is shining at the start of this season. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Nerazzurri have sent a clear message to those concerned: in Milan, the young playmaker has strong admirers. The boy is aware of the interest and knows that the Nerazzurri club is moving early, as is tradition when they identify valuable profiles.
At Appiano, no one has changed their mind about Romano, not even after he was thrown to the lions and picked apart by De Bruyne in the Nations League. The player, born in Switzerland but with an Italian heart, possesses all the required characteristics: left-footed talent, wide margins for growth, physical robustness, and a strong personality. In the event of a midfield reinforcement next season, the Rossoblù playmaker would be at the top of the Nerazzurri list. A significant investment is within the club’s possibilities.
The club has received positive reports both on the player’s technical abilities and his behavior. Italian identity remains a primary value at Appiano and Romano embodies this criterion. President Marotta and sporting director Baccin have started to sow the seeds, just as they did in the past with other Cagliari talents: the last time Inter negotiated for an Italian midfielder from Sardinia, Nicolò Barella arrived, costing 49 million euros and proving to be an excellent investment.
The time for the harvest is still far off. Cagliari is obliged to redeem Romano for 6.5 million and will offer him a five-year contract. The value of his card has already risen above 20 million, with prospects for further growth. Inter avoids auctions, but when it’s worth it, they know how to move wisely and well in advance: this is one of those cases.
