Fiorentina Marksman in Sights as Inter Brace for Lukaku Departure

Dusan Vlahovic has emerged as one of Inter’s primary targets this summer transfer window ahead of Romelu Lukaku’s predicted mega-move to Chelsea. The London club have already seen their €100m plus Marcos Alonso offer for the Belgian turned down, but an additional €30m added to the sum is expected to be accepted by the Nerazzurri.

The highly rated 21-year-old Fiorentina forward has been identified as a top target, with his asking price reportedly around the €60m range – as per La Repubblica. Vlahovic’s current contract with La Viola expires in June 2023 but it is expected that the Serbian will extend his contract for two more years.

The Serbian youngster has been on the radar of several top European clubs over the past two transfer seasons and a move to Milan would undoubtedly be a major step in his career.

Atalanta’s Duvan Zapata is another low-cost option being considered by Inter to replace Lukaku.
