Inter Take a Look at Fast-Rising Fiorentina Youngster

Samir Handanovic, who now works as a scout for Inter, was spotted in the stands of the recent clash between Fiorentina and Lazio and was watching in particular Michael Kayode, who scored his first career goal on Monday, Tuttomercatoweb informed.

The Nerazzurri have reprised negotiating with Denzel Dumfries, but it’s not a fait accompli they’ll manage to strike a deal and renew his contract, which is up in 2025. They are doing their due diligence on potential replacements.

At this stage, there have been no direct contacts between Inter and Fiorentina to discuss Kayode. His agent Andrea Ritorni weighed in on Radio FirenzeViola.

“Some Premier League sides are after him, but his club shouldn’t be concerned. His contract speaks for him. He’s fine in this team and squad. The interest is normal and part of the game and life. However, the front office locked him down with a nice deal and many bonuses. We’re only focused on doing well in Florence now and in the future.”

Our Take on Inter and Kayode

It’s standard operating procedure for top clubs to monitor the brightest prospects, especially in roles where they might need a new man. They have a few months to haggle with Dumfries before deciding whether to sell him. The Viola starlet would be a great substitute as he’s already impactful despite his little experience and would fare even better as a wingback, but it looks like he’ll stay put.
