Signing Inter striker Lautaro Martinez remains Barcelona’s priority for the Summer transfer window but the Spanish side are looking at alternatives in case they cannot sign him according to a report from Spanish news outlet Mundo Deportivo.

The 22-year-old is seemingly the Blaugrana’s number one transfer target and he has a €111 million release clause in his current contract.

Barcelona however do not wish to pay the clause, which must be paid in full no more than a week after being activated and are instead thinking about doing a player(s) plus cash deal for the Argentine, who they have reportedly offered a contract to with an annual salary of €10 million.

As per the report, Barcelona management met with the father of RB Leipzig’s Timo Werner prior to the ongoing pandemic beginning.

Werner, who has a €60 million release clause, is highly sought after with it understood that Liverpool are keen on him as are Inter as a possible replacement for Lautaro.

Inter & Real Madrid Spark Interest In Signing Roma Captain Edin Dzeko

Inter and Real Madrid have both sparked an interest in signing Roma captain Edin Dzeko ahead of the upcoming Summer transfer window according to a report in today’s print edition of Corriere dello Sport.

Roma do not wish to lose Dzeko but it is no secret that his high wages are a burden on the club and the report goes on to explain he could therefore be asked to take a pay cut and an exit from the club cannot be excluded either.

With Inter and Real Madrid seemingly interested, Roma are at work to ensure they do not find themselves unprepared if Dzeko is bought by someone else.

The report from the Rome based newspaper goes on to explain that the Giallorossi club have identified Napoli’s Dries Mertens as a player they could move for if he does go.

The Belgian national team attacker’s contract with Napoli is due to expire at the end of the season and he is also widely reported to be a target of Inter’s as well.

Inter CEO Marotta Comes Up With List Of Summer Transfer Window Targets

Inter manager Antonio Conte wants several players brought in that are on the same or almost the same level as many of the current starters according to a report in today’s print edition of Gazzetta dello Sport.

Inter chief executive Giuseppe ‘Beppe’ Marotta has come up with a list of targets based on Conte’s desire and has various players in mind for each department.

Starting with the defence, Inter could bring in Emerson Palmieri to bolster at full back from Chelsea. In the event Diego Godin is to depart, Inter may also move for Tottenham Hotspur’s Jan Vertonghen, who is set to become a free agent in a matter of months.

As for the midfield, Barcelona’s Arturo Vidal, Bayern Munich’s Corentin Tolisso and Fiorentina’s Federico Chiesa are all targets.

When it comes to the attack, it is between Napoli’s Dries Mertens and Chelsea’s Olivier Giroud, both of whom could become free agents. As things stand the Belgian is favoured more.

Italian Media Reports Chelsea Striker Olivier Giroud On Verge Of Joining Inter On A Free Transfer

Olivier Giroud is set to arrive at Inter in the coming months on a free transfer according to a report in today’s print edition of Corriere dello Sport.

The Frenchman’s current contract with Premier League club Chelsea is due to expire at the end of this season and an agreement has already been reached between Inter and the 2018 World Cup winning striker.

As per the report from the Rome based newspaper, Giroud has agreed to a two year deal with Inter with an option to a third year and he has also agreed to take a substantial pay cut compared to what he is currently earning at the London based club.

The 33-year-old had also received an offer from Inter’s fellow Serie A side Lazio but he gave it little thought due to being so set on a move to Inter where he will be able to reunite with former manager Antonio Conte.

Christian Vieri: “Gave Everything For Inter, Ronaldo Is The Best Striker Of All Time”

In an interview with Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera, published yesterday in the print version of the paper, former Inter striker Christian Vieri has spoken on a number of Inter related topics and firstly reflected on his time with the club.

“I spent six crazy years at Inter. I gave everything for Inter and believed in the project. There was always an electric atmosphere at San Siro and I always felt the affection of the fans every time we went on to the field,” he began the interview which appeared in today’s print edition.

Vieri then spoke on former Inter striker Ronaldo, who was a teammate of his for three years at the Nerazzurri.

“He is the phenomenon. For me, he is the best striker in the world and even out of this world. We had three fantastic years together.”

Next Vieri went on to speak about former Inter and current Italian national team manager Roberto Mancini, who he worked with during his final season with Inter before moving to AC Milan.

“Do you know what I like about Mancio? I like that he enhances the qualities of the players. He sees young people and is not afraid to throw them in at the deep end but at the same time he doesn’t neglect old players.”

He then touched on some of the low points of his Inter career.

“There was that bad story that surfaced about stalking but I never did anything wrong. There was also that game on May 5th but that is part of football. You win some and you lose some. That defeat destroyed us as we had been in the lead since the beginning. It was an incentive to get better.”

The former Italian national team forward then insisted that health must come first during these unprecedented times.

“I understand the demand for football, which is losing millions of euros by being on hold but at this moment people are more important. Health comes first. When football can resume, it will do so.”

In conclusion he was asked whether or not Juventus will go on to win a ninth straight Serie A title if the season does indeed resume.

Will Juventus win again? They have won eight in a row and sooner or later they will lose. Up until now they have not been particularly convincing but are still leading the league and are in the Champions League knockout stages and in the semi finals of the Coppa Italia.”

Inter Linked Santiago Rodriguez’s Agent: “Inter Are A Great Team, He Is Ready For New & More Demanding Challenges”

Pablo Boselli, the agent of Nacional and Uruguay under 23 national team attacking midfielder Santiago Rodriguez, has welcomed the reported interest that Inter have in his client’s services.

“Inter are a great team where many South American attackers have been successful in the past. It is great that Rodriguez is being linked to such an important club,” he explained in an interview with Italian news outlet FCInterNews.it.

He proceeded to reveal that there are talks taking place with a number of clubs at the moment but he refused to name any names.

“We are talking to various clubs in Europe at the moment but given the current situation nothing concrete can be said.”

He was then asked if he believes his client has the ability to swap Uruguayan top flight football for football in Europe somewhere.

“Yes. When a player manages to emerge in the first division in Uruguay, as a starring figure at an important club, winning the championship and being decisive in several games, I think he is ready to face new and more demanding challenges.”

In conclusion he was asked how much clubs could expect to pay for his client but he admitted that it is not down to him to determine the value of the 20-year-old.

“You must ask the club’s directors directly about his price. I wish to add that he is a player who has his feet firmly planted on the ground, loves his family, has a lot of personality and a lot of hunger to grow day after day.”

This season Rodriguez has made five appearances across all competitions to date prior to football being stopped pretty much everywhere in the world due to the Coronavirus pandemic. He has scored one goal in almost 300 minutes on the field.

Is It Realistic To Expect The 2019/2020 Serie A Season To Resume?

The coronavirus situation in Italy has shown the first signs of improvement in the last few days – but make no mistake, it is still dire.

People are still locked inside their homes with little to do other than watch TV, stream movies, play games at the All Jackpots Casino, and wait for the good news to come. The stress of the lockdown is aggravated by the fact that football – and all other live sports – are missing from TV, which is especially dire in Italy, a famously football-loving nation.

All football matches were suspended by the Italian government from March 9 – initially, the suspension was meant to end by April 2nd but, due to the evolution of the pandemic, it was extended. So, let’s take a look at if and when Serie A will return to the screens.

Lockdown Until May 3rd

As of this week, there are still more than 100,000 active coronavirus cases in Italy, and it has among the highest mortality rates in the world. The authorities don’t expect to loosen any of the strict distancing mandates until May the 3rd – and all depends on the evolution of the pandemic until this date.

“If we gave up now, we would put all the positive results achieved so far at stake and restart with a new rise in the death toll,” PM Giuseppe Conte told the press on April 10. This, of course, means that…

No Football Until Earliest May 4th

The Serie A was supposed to end on May 24 – but it was cut short by the oncoming disease. There literally hasn’t been any organized football in Italy since March 9, leaving the season with 12 matchdays still in the air.

This has cost the league a great deal of money. According to recent estimates, the economic impact of the pandemic on Serie A is about 700 million euros – the loss of revenue from broadcasts alone has risen to 450 million. The league officials even suggested that, if the season won’t resume, player salaries should be cut by a third to attenuate the economic impact of the pandemic.

While we can only categorize this as “wishful thinking” right now, it’s worth mentioning that FIGP president Gravina has expressed his hopes that the players can resume training on May 4th. If the lockdown is eased, of course.

In this case, this year’s Serie A season could resume by the end of May or the beginning of June – this timeframe is, in turn, fluid at this time. The games would, of course, be “ghost games” played behind closed doors, without spectators. Some suggest that all the games should be held in four cities, excluding the Northern regions that were hit hardest by the disease.

Former Inter Defender Campagnaro To Retire At End Of The Season: “The Time Has Come To Say Enough”

Former Inter defender Hugo Campagnaro has announced that he will retire at the end of this season, whenever that may be.

The 39-year-old, who has made 17 appearances for the Argentine national team, is currently on the books of Serie B side Pescara and will hang up his boots after a 22 year senior career in the coming months.

“The time has come to say enough. I am satisfied with my career but now I have to think about the future. My family and I will stay in Pescara, regardless of my job but before hanging up my boots I will have to complete the season and give a hand to Pescara,” Campagnaro remarked in an interview with Italian newspaper Il Centro.

“Personally I can’t wait to play again, I really want to end the season and my career well.”

Campagnaro began his senior career with Deportivo Moron in the lower leagues of Argentina back in 1998 and moved to Italy in 2002 when he joined Piacenza.

He spent five years with I Lupi before joining Sampdoria, where he spent two years which was followed with a four year spell at Napoli.

He joined Inter in the Summer of 2013 and spent two years with the club before joining his current employers. During his two years with Inter he made 39 appearances across all competitions, in which he provided two assists for his teammates.
