Report – Inter Milan Vying For Talented Parma & Valencia Center-Backs To Reinforce Defensive Line But Must Sell First | OneFootball

Inter Milan have taken a concrete interest in Parma youngster Giovanni Leoni and Valencia starlet Cristhian Mosquera.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, sporting director Piero Ausilio has recently accelerated talks for the latter.

Giovanni Leoni is Inter’s long-term target.

However, the idea gained momentum after the club appointed Cristian Chivu as Simone Inzaghi’s heir.

Indeed, the 2010 treble winner established the 18-year-old as a first-team regular at Parma last season.

Therefore, a reunion is seemingly on the cards.

In addition to Leoni, the San Siro giants are working on luring Cristhian Mosquera to Serie A.

The 20-year-old’s contract at Estadio de Mestalla runs out next summer.

With renewal talks hitting a stalemate, Inter have spotted a window of opportunity and could soon seize it.

As such, Ausilio has already struck a ‘verbal agreement’ with the Spanish prospect and may soon open discussions with Valencia.

Mosquera won’t come cheap, considering Los Che could ask for up to €20 million to sanction the deal.

However, Inter must sell first.

Therefore, they’re bracing themselves for offers for Yann Bisseck, while Francesco Acerbi could also make room.
