Inter Milan is reportedly planning to sell four players to fund the acquisition of Atalanta midfielder Ederson. According to recent reports, the Nerazzurri are looking to offload Hakan Calhanoglu, Davide Frattesi, Sebastiano Esposito, and Aleksandar Stankovic to finance the deal.
Calhanoglu and Frattesi: Key Assets for Sale
Inter has set a €30 million price tag for Turkish midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu and hopes to complete his sale within the next two weeks. The club is also considering selling Davide Frattesi for around €40 million, with Atletico Madrid showing interest in the Italian international.
Ederson: Inter`s Prime Target
Atalanta`s Ederson has emerged as Inter`s top choice to replace Calhanoglu in midfield. The Brazilian has impressed in Serie A, catching the eye of Inter`s management.
Additional Sales to Complete the Deal
To further boost their transfer funds, Inter is looking to sell striker Sebastiano Esposito to Fiorentina for €7 million. Additionally, 19-year-old Aleksandar Stankovic, who spent last season on loan at Luzern FC, is being eyed by Club Brugge as a potential replacement for Ardon Jashari.
While Inter is open to these sales, the club remains cautious about Frattesi`s departure, given his versatility in midfield under new coach Cristian Chivu. The coming weeks will be crucial in determining whether Inter can raise sufficient funds to secure Ederson`s signature and reinforce their squad for the upcoming season.
