Official – Inter Milan Extend Contracts Of Two Primavera Teenagers | OneFootball

Inter Milan teenagers Matteo Cocchi and Leonardo Bovo have signed new contracts at San Siro.

According to Inter.it, both players have penned multi-year deals.

Despite attracting plenty of interest, Matteo Cocchi will stay at Inter this season.

However, the highly-rated 18-year-old will be part of Stefano Vecchi’s U23 squad.

Cocchi can cover several positions but is best-versed in playing as a fullback.

Indeed, the versatile defender already made two appearances this season and was a starter in a 1-1 draw against Novara.

In addition to Cocchi, the Serie A giants have tied Leonardo Bovo down to a new long-term contract.

The 20-year-old midfielder has graduated from the San Siro academy.

However, unlike Cocchi, he is still waiting for his first senior appearance for the Nerazzurri.

Still, he has featured in both matches for the U23 side this season, though he came off the bench each time.

Bovo can operate as a central midfielder, but he feels more comfortable playing deeper in the engine room.
