Inter Milan Ready To Offer Skriniar For Chelsea Midfielder, Kante
Inter are reportedly ready to sacrifice defensive ace Milan Skriniar in order to bring in one of Chelsea ace N’Golo Kante.
After finishing second in Serie A this past campaign and ending up on the losing side in the Europa League final, there were both positives and negatives to take from the year for coach Antonio Conte.
He will undoubtedly hope that he gets the chance to strengthen his squad further this summer to make them even more competitive, but time will tell just how many new faces arrive.
As noted by Calciomercato, via the paper edition of Corriere dello Sport, it’s suggested that they could sacrifice Skriniar in order to raise the necessary funds to go after one of Kante or Ndombele of Chelsea and Tottenham respectively.
Given how important the Slovakian international has been to Inter over the past two seasons in establishing them as a top-four side in Serie A again and competing in Europe, it’s arguably a questionable decision to an extent as they will surely miss his presence in the backline if he were to move on.
Former Al-Ittihad star Mohammed Noor has slammed Karim Benzema over his move to Al-Hilal.
The Ballon d’Or winner quit Al-Ittihad after being left unhappy with their new contract offer.
An unimpressed Noor snapped: “Karim Benzema’s contract was set to expire on June 30, 2026, and he received two offers from Al-Ittihad to renew it, but he stalled.
“Benzema had already reached an agreement with Al-Hilal without the knowledge of the Al-Ittihad board. Then he came to pressure the club’s management, who had made him offers, but he didn’t respond because he had already agreed everything with the Al-Hilal board.
“He reached an agreement with Al-Hilal and had a bad exit from Al-Ittihad. Didn’t the fans who supported him and chanted his name for so long deserve a thank you before he left?
“He’s the loser, not Al-Ittihad.”
Manchester United Champions League winner Owen Hargreaves has praised manager Michael Carrick for fixing the balance of their midfield.
Hargreaves believes the rejigging from Carrick has brought out the best in Bruno Fernandes, who struck in Saturday’s 2-0 win against Tottenham.
Speaking on TNT Sports, he said: “Let’s be honest, 200 goal involvements is ridiculous. They’re Playstation numbers. He plays with risk but it’s risk that the team benefits from.
“Kobbie (Mainoo) in behind was fantastic again and Casemiro… those three were probably the three best players in the game, in my opinion.
“We said beforehand, under Ruben Amorim, that midfield was a weakness but that midfield three is really good.
“Obviously Bruno is the best player by a country mile and I just think they look so much stronger now as a midfield three.”
Man United are reportedly looking to sign AC Milan and USMNT star Christian Pulisic in the summer.
The 27-year-old has been a key player for AC Milan since joining from Chelsea back in 2023, scoring 43 goals and providing 22 assists in his 121 games.
According to Calcio Mercato via GiveMeSport, Pulisic’s fine form in Italy has caught the attention of Man United, who are keen on bringing him back to the Premier League.
It’s understood that AC Milan are reluctant to sell Pulisic, but a deal could be sanction for a fee of around £48 million.
Pulisic’s contract with the Serie A giants is set to expire in the summer of 2027 with talks over a new deal yet to progress.
