Josep Martinez: When Inter could announce new goalkeeper signing | OneFootball

Reports in Italy suggest that Genoa goalkeeper Josep Martinez could officially become an Inter player in the early stages of next week.

When Josep Martinez could arrive for Inter

Inter and Genoa agreed terms for the transfer of the 26-year-old shot stopper earlier this week in a deal that is set to cost a reported €13.5m plus up to €2m in additional bonuses.

The Spanish keeper has already agreed upon personal terms according to reports last week.

TMW and La Gazzetta dello Sport report that he is set to travel to Milan on Sunday in order to undergo his medical and to sign off on the necessary paperwork. Both outlets suggest that there could be an official announcement from Inter by Tuesday.

Martinez has spent the past two seasons on loan in Italy, arriving at Genoa on an initial loan deal from RB Leipzig for the 2022-23 season. After helping to secure promotion from Serie B, Martinez’s move was made permanent ahead of the 2023-24 campaign, in which he made 36 appearances.

Inter had also been working on a deal for Brazilian goalkeeper Bento, but the club were ultimately unable to agree terms with Atletico Paranaense.
