Reigning Serie A holders Inter must sell several first-team players to accommodate the new arrivals, but it’s been a slow process. Calciomercato’s recent update takes stock of the potential departures from Giuseppe Meazza in the coming weeks.
Three players are reportedly in jeopardy as Inter must raise funds to boost Simone Inzaghi’s recruitment plans. The club has already announced two major deals. Piotr Zielinski and Mehdi Taremi have joined the Nerazzurri on a free transfer. But the Italians are reluctant to stop there.
Aware of stringent financial rules, Inter have put several stars up for sale after Inzaghi deemed them unfit for his system. Sitting at the top of the pile is the Austria international Marko Arnautovic. Approaching the autumn of his playing career, Arnautovic is desperate to stay at Inter for another season.
However, the veteran striker is blocking the club’s pursuit of Genoa’s Albert Gudmundsson. And with Taremi now fighting for his place under the sun, there’s no room for Arnautovic. Inter are determined to get the ex-Bologna forward’s wages off their books, but the situation remains complicated.
Next on the chopping block is prodigious winger Valentin Carboni. Despite his burgeoning talent, the Argentine doesn’t fit Inzaghi’s 3-5-2 formation. On top of that, Inter could earn up to €30 million from his sale.
Finally, Joaquin Correa is on his way out. Following a lackluster loan spell at Olympique Marseille, the out-of-favor Inter forward could continue his career in Greece, with AEK Athens vying for his signature.
