Report – Inter Milan Set Sights On Royal Antwerp Midfielder | OneFootball

Inter Milan are reportedly considering a late summer swoop for Royal Antwerp midfielder Mahamadou Doumbia.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInter1908, the 21-year-old is the latest name on Beppe Marotta’s shortlist.

With time ticking away, Inter must act quickly.

However, their attempt to sign Manu Kone has come a cropper as Roma have no intention of offloading their star midfielder.

Meanwhile, Cristian Chivu is desperate to bolster his midfield options.

After being rebuffed by Roma, Inter have turned to Rennes prodigy Djaoui Cisse.

Despite his young age, the 21-year-old commands a substantial €30 million price tag.

While Inter are ready to invest big to reinforce their engine room, Cisse remains something of a long shot.

Largely unknown outside France, he is an under-the-radar talent with seemingly immense potential.

However, the Italian giants are also evaluating other options, including Doumbia, whose contract at Antwerp expires in 2027.
