Inter and Roma wary of Galatasaray in pursuit of Jhon Lucumi | OneFootball

Jhon Lucumi is a wanted man this summer. His performances over the last couple of years have certainly been among the best when you speak of centre-backs in Serie A. Naturally, there is a lot of interest from inside and outside of Italy. Barcelona were deemed an interested party but that news has died down. Bournemouth too were linked to him and that news could flame up again given they look set to sell Ilya Zabarnyi to PSG. Inter have been looking at him as they want fresher legs in defence and it seems like Gian Piero Gasperini has specifically requested his signing since taking over at Roma. However, as per TMW, Galatasaray have now thrown their hats in the ring. The Turkish club are looking likely to have a massive summer having already signed Leroy Sane. Alongside Lucumi, they have also been linked to Hakan Calhanoglou and Ilkay Gundogan. The Colombian defender has a €28m release clause in his contract. Kaulik Mitra | GIFN
