Di Marzio – Inter Milan Offer €40M + Add-Ons For Roma & France Midfielder | OneFootball

Inter Milan have offered €40 million plus add-ons to Roma for midfielder Manu Kone.

This according to Sky Sport Italia transfer market expert Gianluca Di Marzio. He reports, via FCInterNews, that the Nerazzurri have offered a similar amount to that which they bid for Ademola Lookman.

The Nerazzurri reportedly see the France international as an ideal profile for the holding midfield position.

Inter have no shortage of midfielders who can play in a more advanced role.

However, midfielders like Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Hakan Calhanoglu are not as well-suited to playing in a double pivot.

According to Sky Sport Italia transfer expert Gianluca Di Marzio, Inter have put a bid on the table for Kone.

He reports that the Nerazzurri have offered €40 million plus add-ons.

Not coincidentally, that is right amount the amount that Atalanta rejected for Ademola Lookman.

Therefore, it looks as though Inter could be shifting their strategy and investing in central midfield rather than in attack.

Di Marzio furthermore reports that Roma have yet to decide whether to green light a transfer for Kone.

However, the Giallorossi could decide to cash in on the Frenchman in order to fund a signing in attack, he predicts.
