On the occasion of Christmas, the Inter generals are "celebrating the New Year".
Most people choose to be with their families, and there are no negative scandals or moths, which is also the most gratifying thing about Inter today.
At the same time, the winter window is about to open, and one of Inter's important tasks has begun to gradually accelerate, that is: the operation of visa-free.
The situation has been introduced countless times, and it would be verbose to say more - in short, Inter Milan is underfunded, and it is impossible to spend all real money to buy it as soon as there is a shortage of people, and it will be very helpful for the team to seize the opportunity to get a visa.
The Italian media took stock of the Inter Memorabilia in 2023, in which the visa-free players played a very important role.
For example, Onana's high price sale is a huge financial help. For example, the signing of Thuram Jr. has been key to the Nerazzurri's progress in league results this season. For another example, judging from the performance of the whole year, players such as Calhanoglu and Mkhitaryan are the best choices in the team in terms of attendance and performance.
When the winter window opens, that's when players whose contracts are theoretically about to expire can sign a transfer agreement with Bosemin.
As we all know, Inter transfer manager Osilio is a solid worker, good at casting a wide net and multi-layout, and is an excellent operator with Marotta's "opportunistic" style.
The Italian media also introduced the five major visa-free goals that Inter Milan has more in-depth in terms of layout.
There were a lot of people in the Italian media. For example, Manchester United's Anthony Martial, Spain's Kokai and others have scandals with Inter almost every year, but there is always thunder and rain. Since the Inter transfer team is implementing the strategy of "casting a wide net and flirting everywhere", various possibilities cannot be ruled out. But here are just a few of the more in-depth candidates.
Based on the introduction of rigorous (relatively speaking) experts such as Di Marzio, Romano, Moretto, Guaro, and Biasin in the past 1-2 months, there are 5 candidates.
Taremi is the forward option. Most fans want to sign the player in the winter window, but Porto's asking price is too high and Inter's budget is limited.
Zielinski is the midfield option. The player has agreed in principle to Inter's offer, but there are still uncertainties before the signing, after all, the player has not completely closed the door to renew his contract with Napoli, and Juventus is also involved.
Jallow is the defensive option. Inter are still evaluating whether to bring him in early in the winter window, depending on the level of support from the board of directors and how much money will be needed to acquire the first position (right wingback) in the winter window.
The situation of the above three people has been introduced a lot recently, so let's pass it off this time.
In addition to the above three, there are two other candidates who are also worth mentioning.
One is Atalanta striker Muriel.
The 32-year-old Colombian striker is not the absolute main force of the "true blue and black", and on the premise of no injuries and illnesses so far this season, he has only played 597 minutes in the double line (Serie A + Europa League), but he has scored 6 goals and 1 assist, but his efficiency is very good.
As the second person in the overall list of "super substitutes" in Serie A for 3 years since 2020 (note: only the league is counted, Muriel scored 10 goals and 5 assists in 1438 minutes of substitute appearances, and is the second person with the most outstanding achievements after coming off the bench in Serie A in the same period, second only to Lautaro, who scored 15 goals and 3 assists in 703 minutes of substitute appearance), exempting Muriel from signing can become an option for Inter to supplement the thickness of the striker, and the difficulty of the transaction lies in the contract length and salary control, after all, Inter also has the rigid need to avoid the risk of tail ending.
The other is West Ham United's 28-year-old Czech international midfielder Soucek.
Soucek is a "hexagonal warrior", 1.92 meters tall, can play as a midfielder or as a wide of three midfielders (so-called Mezzala or B2B), and the player is currently valued at 35 million euros by Transfermarkt. This season, Soucek has seven goals and one assist in 26 appearances for the Hammers, and is averaging 3.6 times per game to win the ball back, and is also remarkable in tackles, interceptions and clearances (defensive set-pieces).
In his career, he scored 24 goals and 6 assists in 139 Premier League games, and scored 7 goals and 3 assists in 39 games in European competitions (Champions League + Europa League, only counting the main match).
And he also fits Inter's tradition of "love signings" (such as Eriksen, Achraf, Thuram and even Dimarco...... The chances of joining a good performance against Inter are relatively greater).
Soucek also has a relationship with Inter, Conte's Nerazzurri had a dismal record in European competitions, and his masterpiece was the fierce battle against Slavia Prague without a win, and the official MVP of UEFA was Soucek. The player's reputation increased with his performance at the time and he was able to join the Premier League. Fate goes round and round, and if Shochek finally joins Inter, it can be regarded as not knowing each other.
The difficulty for Inter to bring in Soucek is positioning. The player's current weekly salary with the Hammers is around £70,000 (about 4.3 million euros before annual salary), and Inter will be exempt from signing him, and the commission signing fee will say that at least a major contract must be issued (which will be more expensive if the new tax law is removed). Due to the rigid need for salary control, Inter cannot afford to bring in Zielinski and Soucek at the same time without selling their existing midfielders. Serie A's revenue can't really support 5-6 high-paying midfielders, which involves a matter of choice.
To sum up, Inter has begun to accelerate the operation of visa-free related actions. Inter has made a lot of achievements in visa exemption in recent years, and 2023 is about to pass, what will Inter achieve in 2024?
