Fellow Cameroon international Andre Onana is set to join Inter in the summer, and former Barcelona icon Eto'o sees him as one of the world’s best in his position.
Despite the arrival of André Onana on a free transfer, Samir Handanovic is highly likely to re-up with Inter: “We are very close to reaching an agreement. Both sides want the same thing, and I am ready to stay for another year. I am willing to compete.”
Handanovic already has 14 clean sheets in 2021/22, making him the league’s best goalkeeper according to statistics. Moreover, he is out to charge his Nerazzurri troops for their second successive Scudetti title – something Cesar believes will etch his legacy further.
Of all the top three contenders for the Scudetto title, Inter have maintained the best defensive record in the league, conceding just 24 goals in 31 matches, although they do possess an extra game in hand.
Samir Handanovic could ink a new contract and stay at Inter even though the club has already signed André Onana. The management and the player are closer to coming to terms than in previous months, when their respective stances had stiffened up.
André Onana will join Inter to be the starter since he signed a considerable contract. However, the goalkeeper has struggled since returning from his suspension. He had a few blunders in the African Cup of Nations and Ajax. The Nerazzurri want to have a reliable backup to be safe.

Inter are on the brink of completing their lengthy chase of André Onana. The Ajax goalkeeper has arrived in Milan earlier today to take the medicals. He will soon put pen-to-paper on a five-year contract to join on a Bosman transfer next summer.
