Inter have reached an agreement with Manchester United and Chelsea to extend the loans of Alexis Sanchez and Victor Moses respectively according to a report in today’s print edition of Italian daily newspaper Corriere dello Sport.

Both players will now remain with Inter until the end of the Serie A campaign and as things stand they will not be staying to play for Inter in the Europa League come August.

Further talks with both Manchester United and Chelsea will be required in order to extend the loans long enough to allow the players to compete in the Europa League.

Manchester United are reluctant to extend Sanchez’s loan to allow this due to the fact they could meet Inter in the Europa League. They could insert a clause which would prevent the Chilean from playing in the event the sides face one another.

As for Chelsea, the Blues are hoping to sell Moses outright rather than agree to extend his loan further.

Lautaro Martinez is closer to staying at Inter than moving to Barcelona according to a report in today’s print edition of Italian daily newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport.

The report explains that Lautaro’s €111 million release clause is due to expire in seven days time and it seems unlikely that Barcelona will trigger that or offer €90 million plus Junior Firpo, as demanded by Inter.

Newly introduced La Liga rules which limit clubs’ spending in the transfer market plus the fact Barcelona have been unable to raise the adequate funds has complicated life for the Blaugrana club.

It therefore looks likely that Lautaro will stay at Inter for at least another season and the report also claims that Inter will offer him a new and improved contract during the off-season.

This season the 22-year-old forward has made 34 appearances across all competitions to date, in which he has scored 17 goals and provided four assists for his teammates.

Following on from Inter’s 2-1 win over Parma, Italian broadcaster TeleLombardia director Fabio Ravezzani has been critical of Inter’s Danish international attacking midfielder Christian Eriksen.

Having played very well against both Napoli and Sampdoria, Eriksen struggled in the 3-3 draw at home to Sassuolo and also struggled against Parma at the Stadio Ennio Tardini last night with some people in the media having suggested that he has taken a step back.

Eriksen arrived at Inter in the most recent January transfer window from Tottenham Hotspur and since the season resumed Inter manager Antonio Conte has changed to a 3-4-1-2 system to allow Eriksen to play in his natural role.

Ravezzani has taken to social media platform Twitter to share his belief that Eriksen’s lack of defending has been a factor in Inter’s recent issue of being unable to keep the ball out of the net.

“I could be wrong but the real tactical problem of Inter is that Eriksen does not defend and playing with him and two attackers becomes very dangerous. Hence the many goals conceded in recent games,” he posted.

Since his arrival at the club, Eriksen has made 12 appearances, in which he has scored two goals and provided two assists for his teammates.

Lazio need to better their offer for Hellas Verona defender Marash Kumbulla in order to keep fellow interested club Inter at bay according to a report from Italian broadcaster Sky Sport Italia, which was aired late last night.

As things stand, Lazio are currently leading the race to sign the highly rated Italian born Albanian national team player but need to raise their offer to stop Inter, who are slightly out the way in the race for Kumbulla.

Lazio had presented a €20 million plus player offer to the Gialloblu club for Kumbulla but this report claims that Hellas Verona were not convinced by the player offered to them by the Italian capital city club.

This season the 20-year-old has had a first team breakthrough at Hellas Verona and has been one of the biggest revelations of the 2019/20 Serie A season.

Kumbulla has made 22 appearances across all competitions to date, in which he has scored a single goal.

Former Inter goalkeeper Ivano Bordon has shared his belief that Inter are not entirely out of the race to win the Serie A title following their 2-1 win over Parma on Sunday night.

Inter fell behind early on through a Gervinho goal but managed to overturn the result in the final 10 minutes of the match with thanks to goals from defenders Stefan de Vrij and Alessandro Bastoni.

“At the beginning of the second half Parma could not make themselves more dangerous than the first and I thought that Inter would soon draw level. Parma fell off a lot in the second half,” Bordon explained in an interview with Italian radio station Radio Sportiva yesterday afternoon.

The former Italian national team player then went on to speak about Inter manager Antonio Conte, who had to watch the match from the stands due to suspension.

“In the stands he was suffering a lot, I think Inter and all the teams will improve as the days go by. There will be those who will be slower to acquire their physical condition, others faster.”

Next he discussed the Serie A title race: “Scudetto? Anything can still happen. Inter are eight points behind Juve but their schedule for the next two days is favourable.”

In conclusion Bordon spoke on Christian Eriksen, who Inter recruited in the most recent January transfer window.

“He will be able to adapt quickly and can be an additional weapon for this Inter.”

Bordon spent 13 years of his playing career with Inter between 1970 and 1983 and after retiring he also spent some time as a goalkeeping coach for Inter.

With Moroccan fullback Achraf Hakimi on his way to Inter from Real Madrid, SempreInter.com have asked the team at African Football HQ to take a look at five of the best Africans to have donned the Nerazzurri colors.

1. Samuel Eto’o – The Lion King From Cameroon

It’s no surprise that Samuel Eto’o is first on this list. The Cameroonian is arguably the best African footballer of all time, let alone African to play for Internazionale.

Eto’o joined the Italian outfit from FC Barcelona in a mega transfer swap deal with Zlatan Ibrahimovic going the other way. In addition to the swap, Barcelona paid Inter a reported fee of £59 million. Inter got the better end of the deal as Zlatan failed to adjust to life in Spain while Eto’o immediately refound his goal scoring ways with Inter.

With Inter, Eto’o scored 53 goals in 102 games in all competitions. In his first season, he helped the club win a coveted league, cup and UEFA Champions League treble, in addition to the Italian Super Cup and Club World Cup. Another Coppa Italia followed the next season along with 37 goals.

After two relatively successful seasons with Inter, Eto’o took up an offer from Russian club Anzhi Makhachkala that made him the world’s highest-paid player, with a salary of €20 million (after taxes) per season.

2. Obafemi Martins – The Nigerian King Of The Somersaults

Obafemi Martins came to Italy in 2000 to play for Serie C side A.C. Reggiana. After breaking into the first team Serie A sides Perugia and Inter made offers for the forward. The then 17-year-old joined the latter a year later for a €750,000 transfer fee. In his first seasons Martins scored 23 goals for the youth team, helping them win the Campionato Nazionale Primavera.

His performances with the youth team were rewarded with a promotion to the first team the next season. Martins oddly made as many appearances in the UEFA Champions League as he did in the league in the 2002/03 season under Hector Cuper. His first goal in the Champions League, a cool 1v1 conversion against Bayer 04, was followed by an iconic celebration where he took off his shirt and performed somersaults. UEFA even used footage of his celebration to promote the Champions League.

Martins scored 46 times in 126 appearances in the next three seasons, but Inter desired an increased scoring output from their striker. After Argentinian Hernán Crespo was brought in on loan from Chelsea and the acquisition of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Martins was sold to Newcastle United in 2006.

3. Taribo West – The Cult Hero Clergyman From Port Harcourt

Football Manager cult hero Taribo West is one of the greatest Africans to have graced Serie A. He featured for the Super Eagles in two World Cups and won the Olympic gold medal in 1996. He joined Internazionale from Auxerre in 1997.

He scored the winner in their UEFA Cup quarter-final against Schalke in his debut season, the year they won the competition. In his second season he made 21 appearances, although that was all his time with Inter had in store for him as he fell out of favor with the management in his third season with the club and was transferred to arch rivals Milan in the winter window.

West recently claimed that the mafia put a stop to his time in Milan, as they could not accept an African playing at the expense of Italian club legends Paolo Maldini and Alessandro Costacurta.

4. Mohamed Kallon – The Small Kallon By Nickname Only

Sierra Leone legend Kallon is the second-highest African goalscorer in Serie A history (39). He was signed by Internazionale in 1995 (aged 16) but was loaned out four times.

By 2001, Inter were finally ready to take a chance on Kallon. Injuries to Ronaldo and Recoba saw Kallon play 29 Serie A matches, scoring 9 goals as the team’s second-highest scorer. Unfortunately for Kallon and Inter, they narrowly missed out on the league title and a UEFA Cup final appearance.

Injuries and an eight-month drug suspension saw him play significantly less in the next two seasons before he was sold to AS Monaco.

5. Nwankwo Kanu – The Biggest African “What If” At Inter

Kanu joined Inter in 1996 from Ajax at what was supposed to be the pinnacle of his career. The summer he joined, Kanu captained Nigeria to gold at the Olympics. Additionally, Kanu was named the African Footballer of the Year for his exploits with Ajax and Nigeria.

Unfortunately, when Kanu arrived from the Olympics for his medical, a serious heart defect was revealed. He underwent surgery in November 1996 to replace an aortic valve and did not return until April 1997.

The next season Kanu was slowly introduced to the side, making 11 appearances in the league (scoring once) and five appearances in continental competitions as Inter won the UEFA Cup. The following season Kanu only made one appearance in the first few months of the season before being signed by Arsenal in February for approximately £4.15 million.

In an Instagram Live chat with Inter, Inter vice president Javier Zanetti has sang the praises of the work that Inter Campus do around the globe.

Inter Campus is a non profit organisation which was launched back in 1996 by former Inter president and owner Massimo Moratti and although Moratti is no longer involved at the club the work continues.

The Inter Campus gives children the opportunity to play football and contributes to the development of the local communities, supporting educational, social and sanitary protection programs carried out by local partners.

“It’s a wonderful, extraordinary project that started more than 20 years ago and which gives everything and more to so many children around the world,” he is quoted as saying by Inter’s official club website.

“Inter’s shirt can be seen far and wide thanks to Inter Campus, and thanks to this social project. Because that’s what Inter is all about, these values are part of its DNA: always thinking about the people who need it most, especially children.”

Zanetti spent nearly his entire career with Inter and has made more appearances than anyone else has for the Nerazzurri club.

Zanetti’s adventure with Inter began back in the Summer of 1996 when he arrived from Superliga Argentina side Banfield. He played for the club until 2014 and after 858 appearances across all competitions, he retired and was then appointed as club vice president.
