Inter reached an agreement with Venezia concerning the acquisition of Tanner Tessmann, but they couldn’t strike a deal with the midfielder, who’s no longer expected to join. Torino, Parma, Como in Serie A, and Celtic Glasgow and Brentford are keen on him now, Gianluca Di Marzio informs.
The turn of events didn’t affect Gaetano Pio Oristanio’s transfer to the Laguna. Instead, it could impact goalie Filip Stankovic’s one, also because he’d back up Jesse Joronen at first, Sky relays (via Informazione).
Inter planned to loan out Tessmann initially. The midfielder turned down the proposal of staying at Venezia for another campaign. Everton were said to be in the lead to get him temporarily.
The Arancioneroverdi don’t have much leverage since the contract of their star expires in 2025, and he doesn’t want to prolong it. He posted 6 goals and 3 assists last season and was instrumental in their promotion.
According to La Stampa (via NumeroDiez), Torino will try to exploit his connection with coach Paolo Vanoli. His valuation is roughly €10M. Fiorentina are also tracking him. On the other hand, the youngster plans to take his time because he’s been called up for the Olympics. The race might turn into a waiting game between his suitors.
Our Take on Inter and Tessmann
It would have been a signing for the future, so it’s not a big blow, but it’s odd they couldn’t come to terms with his agent after doing so with Venezia. It’s two botched deals in a row for the Nerazzurri after the Juan Cabal one. They are either cash-strapped or are keeping their powder dry for a bigger splash.
