Despite the limited funds, Inter will try to sign both Nahitan Nandez and Hector Bellerin. The management is looking to bring them in on loan, delaying the bulk of the investments to next season. The two players have asked their respective clubs to leave and join the Nerazzurri, La Gazzetta dello Sport reports.
Nandez has played most of his career as a box-to-box midfielder, although he finished strong as a right wing-back in the previous campaign. He would easily be able to replace Arturo Vidal, as Inter are in talks to terminate the contract of the Chilean veteran. Instead, Bellerin would fill the void opened up by the departure of Achraf Hakimi.
However, the Beneamata have some work to do on both negotiations. Cagliari are in no rush to complete the deal, and president Tommaso Giulini is currently on vacation. The two clubs are not on the same page on the initial fee and the total cost of the package, the newspaper relays.
The agent of Bellerin will soon fly to Milan to talk directly with Inter. In this case, Arsenal are opposing the formula. Among the alternatives, Denzel Dumfries remains squarely on the radar. His agent Mino Raiola is attempting to persuade PSV to accept a loan with option to buy, Calciomercato.com informs. Instead, Udinese are putting up strong resistance for Nahuel Molina and only a considerable offer would make them reconsider. They are more than happy to keep the standout fullback for another season, the site indicates.
