Inter milan won the league title for the first time in nearly a decade in the 2020-21 season. Unfortunately for Inter fans, the club's financial situation means that two star players, Lukaku and Ashraf, have been sold. Antonio Conte, the mastermind of the victory, also left after being told that the money from the two sales would not be injected into the team. Inter find themselves in a similar situation in the 2021-22 season as they remain one of the favourites for the Serie A champions, while transfer rumours from players such as Barrera and Lautaro Martinez also surround them. If Inter make a lot of money from player sales, they can reinvest, so here are 10 stars associated with the transfer to Meazza.
Onana (Ajax)
André Onana's career came to a standstill after being banned for testing positive for banned substances. In February 2021, the Cameroonian was banned from playing football by UEFA for 12 months because he tested positive for urine. The ban was subsequently shortened to nine months, but it led to a rupture in the player's relationship with Ajax. His current contract with the Dutch giants expires in the summer of 2022 and as he remains a talented goalkeeper, there are plenty of clubs looking to sign him as a free agent, including Inter Milan. This is close to reaching an agreement.
Bremer (Turin)
One of Defrey, Bastoni and Shkrinjar could leave this summer, so Inter need a new centre-back. Inter's primary target is Bremer in Turin. The 25-year-old Brazilian has always been at the top of Serie A and it's no surprise to see him linked to a range of major clubs. He has not made any mistakes in the Fifth Place In Serie A defensive record in to the Torino team. The centre-back – who is placed in the middle of the team's three-back – has all the qualities needed for a top centre-back. He has lightning speed, is strong, aggressive and competitive, and excels in the air.
William Salibba (Arsenal)
It's unclear whether Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta will assess Willian Saliba's talent as he is on loan again this season and Marseille is his destination. He's done well in France and if Arsenal don't want him, he could push for a transfer. Atletico Madrid is the most closely connected, but Inter are also interested if they fail in their pursuit of Bremer.
Flatsy (Sassuolo)
Inter have renewed Brozovic's contract, while Barrera remains one of Italy's best midfielders. However, this position still requires quality players, which is why some midfielders are targeted. One such option is Sassuolo's Fratsi, who has impressed in serie A this season. He will join Inter's growing squad of new generation Italian players.
De Paul (Atletico Madrid)
One of the best attacking midfielders in Serie A last season was De Paul, who scored nine goals and assisted nine times for Udinese. His performances have allowed him to move to Atletico, but so far he has not been ideal in Spain, having scored just two goals in 21 La Liga games so far. De Paul may return to Italy a year after his absence, but Atletico want to close the €35 million they paid for him.
Grigrich (Hoffenheim)
Florian Gryllich has made more than 140 appearances for Hoffenheim and has established himself as a talented bundesliga midfielder who can crush an opponent's attack just as he can dominate the shift from defence to attack for his own team. According to media reports last year, both Napoli and Milan wanted to bring in the midfielder, but the player's agent only confirmed the latter's connection. But nothing happened until the summer windows slammed shut. In recent months, Grilić has instead attracted the interest of Milan's city rivals, with Italian media reporting in November that Inter Milan has seen the Austrian as one of the main targets for the summer.
Lukaku (Chelsea)
There is no doubt that Lukaku's return to Chelsea in the summer of 2021 has proven to be one of the worst Premier League transfers in recent memory. It may seem a bit odd for the Blues to spend €117 million to buy back a former academy player, but Romelu Lukaku's signing is undoubtedly the best showcase of the club's ambitions. He has yet to reach his glory days at Inter milan and even admitted earlier this season that he regrets leaving Italy. It's not an easy deal economically, but both Inter and Romelu Lukaku hope to get it done.
Dybala (Juventus)
Paulo Dybala will leave Juventus as a free agent at the end of the season, with many clubs lining up to sign the Argentine. Juventus and Dybala reached a new contract worth about 10 million euros at the end of 2021, but officials have never formally submitted documents. The Bianconeri then tried to change the terms as they worried about Dybala's ongoing injury problems – he experienced six physical problems in the 2021-22 season. In the end, after weeks of tug-of-war negotiations, Juventus decided not to renew Dybala's contract, making Inter Milan the most likely destination.
Scamaka (Sassuolo)
Gianluca Skamaca has always been considered one of the star players in Serie A. As a teenager at the Roma Youth Academy, he scored goals efficiently and attracted the interest of many of Europe's top clubs. By the time he was 15 as a Roma player, he had already been labeled "Ibrahimovic" because of his similarity in size and style to a Swedish legend. Last season, he scored 12 goals in 29 games in Genoa, scoring one goal per 104 minutes. This season, he is a breakthrough star in Serie A, scoring 13 goals in 20 starts.
Belotti (Turin)
Torino's Andrea Belotti is Inter's cheapest striker option and he will leave on a free transfer this summer. The latest news about Belotti is that West Ham also threw an olive branch at him. But if none of the above goals are achieved, Inter may act to persuade him to stay in Italy.
