Inter might be able to offload Joaquin Correa after all, paving the way for the return of Alexis Sanchez. The Argentine isn’t so keen on departing, but he’s starting to realize that he wouldn’t play much if he stayed.
According to Calciomercato, Simone Inzaghi, who used to be a big supporter, sent him a message by fielding Davide Frattesi and advancing Henrikh Mkhitaryan to replace Lautaro Martinez against Monza.
Correa isn’t so enthused by a possible transfer to Torino. He prefers moving abroad. Bournemouth and Betis Sevilla inquired. The former displayed the most interest. Per Sportitalia, RB Leipzig also reached out to collect info. Instead, Lille contacted his agents directly, Foot Mercato relays.
Inter paid nearly €30M to acquire from Lazio, so the fee would have to be robust, although they could agree to a creative formula. The Nerazzurri wouldn’t look far for a replacement. They are in advanced talks with Alexis Sanchez, who’s chomping at the bit to come back, Goal reports. If the domino materializes, he’ll ink a one-year contract with €3M wages.
Our Take on Inter and Correa
Things seem to be moving in the right direction for La Beneamata, although the details of the bids have yet to pop up and make all the difference in this case. A loan with an obligation to buy could be in the cards.
