Inter Milan Make Contact With Atletico Madrid Star As Nerazzurri Seek To Replace Veteran Defenders
Inter Milan Make Contact With Atletico Madrid Star As Nerazzurri Seek To Replace Veteran Defenders Inter Milan have made contact with Atletico Madrid captain Jose Gimenez as sporting director Piero Ausilio steps up the search for defensive reinforcements ahead of a summer that will see Francesco Acerbi and Stefan de Vrij depart the club. According to Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews , Ausilio’s recent trip to London may have included discussions regarding the Uruguay international. Indeed, who is out of contract with Atletico Madrid at the end of the season.
At 31, with 13 years of experience at the Wanda Metropolitano, Gimenez represents a ready-made option. Especially at a time when Inter cannot afford a lengthy transition period at the back. Inter Could Sign Gimenez To Replace De Vrij Or Acerbi The departures of Francesco Acerbi and Stefan De Vrij are both confirmed for the summer.
A third vacancy could open up if discussions between Alessandro Bastoni and Barcelona continue to advance. While Inter are pursuing younger targets such as Sassuolo’s Muharemovic for a more long-term solution, they also need experienced, immediately available options. And, therefore, Gimenez fits that profile precisely.
His availability on a free transfer makes the proposition even more attractive. Indeed, provided personal terms can be agreed and the player is open to a move to Milan.
