Report – Inter Milan To Make Last-Minute Defensive Signing On Two Conditions | OneFootball

Inter Milan could reportedly make a last-ditch effort to sign a new central defender after offloading Tomas Palacios to Santos.

According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInter1908, the Nerazzurri won’t pursue a new center-back at all costs.

With Tomas Palacios set to join Santos, Inter have freed up space for a new central defender.

Indeed, the Argentine is one step away from moving to Brazil on a season-long loan with an option to buy.

Another exhausting season awaits the Nerazzurri as they prepare to fight on multiple fronts.

Therefore, Cristian Chivu needs strength in depth to rotate his squad and sustain challenges in various competitions.

Increasing numbers at the back make sense, but Inter will only sign a new defender on two conditions.

First and foremost, they require a player with particular technical qualities.

Then, it has to be a cost-effective signing, considering the budget is tight.

Indeed, Beppe Marotta remains attentive to market opportunities as he doesn’t want to splash out big bucks.
