Inter Milan are considering a move for Chelsea forward Christopher Nkunku, according to journalist Gianluca Di Marzio.
The Italian giants are determined to bounce back from a difficult campaign. They finished the season without silverware and fell short on several fronts.
They lost the Serie A title to Napoli on the final day of the season. Their Champions League hopes were also dashed after a heavy defeat in the final.
Simone Inzaghi has since stepped down as manager, with Cristian Chivu appointed as his replacement.
The club are now focused on reshaping their squad ahead of the new campaign. Strengthening the forward line is a major priority.
Nkunku is one of the players on their shortlist. Talks are at an early stage, and Inter are still exploring the deal.
The French forward is highly rated for his versatility and technical ability. He can play as a striker, a number ten or a supporting forward.
The 27-year-old is known for his quick feet and sharp movement in tight areas. He is also a threat in counter-attacks due to his burst of pace.
Nkunku can beat defenders in one-on-one situations. His dribbling and creativity make him a threat from central and wide positions.
He is currently part of the Chelsea squad competing in the Club World Cup. They have reached the final of the tournament.
Inter believe Nkunku can add a new edge to their attack and help them push for major honours.
A deal will depend on Chelsea’s stance and the player’s willingness to move. Inter remain hopeful but are prepared to assess other options if needed.
