Inter might use the budget currently destined for the attack to improve their defense should Marko Arnautovic be their lone acquisition upfront. Instead, if they invested in Mehdi Taremi, they’d bring in somebody on loan with an option to buy in the back, Sky reports (via OneFootball).
The Nerazzurri have a few names in their crosshairs for each eventuality. They have rekindled their interest in Japhet Tanganga. He has been on their radar in the past and might depart Tottenham this summer.
The most recent addition to the Inter wish list for the defense is Lyanco. The former Torino and Bologna center-back has been at Southampton for the past two years. He fell out of favor a little and might be expendable.
La Beneamata is also keeping tabs on two Atalanta specialists, Rafael Toloi and Merih Demiral. Takehiro Tomiyasu is on their radar as well. However, Arsenal want a sizeable sum.
Our Take on Inter Mulling Spending to Shore Up the Defense
It’d be a very weird choice, as they are in decent enough shape already. They’d have to sign a true difference-maker to unseat one of their projected starters, likely Matteo Darmian on the right-hand side. Moreover, considering the names they have been attached to, it’d be highly disappointing if their extensive offensive search produced just Arnautovic.
