Antonio’s escape Conte had hinted at a nebulous future for the Italian champion team, which after losing its leader, had also to say goodbye to Achraf Judge.

As mentioned, after Antonio Conte the farewell of Hakimi arrived, flew to Paris for a figure close to 60-70 million euros. The Moroccan full-back has not yet been replaced but the idea is to do so with a loan purchase with the right of redemption.

Now, except for sensational twists, it will be the turn of Romelu Lukaku, for practically double the amount. Inter, in these days, hoped to be able to sell those redundant players to avoid another painful farewell.

If Lukaku’s departure were to materialize, Marotta and the whole property will have to be good at finding a replacement to match but at the same time avoid a diaspora.

The magnifying glass is now clearly pointed at Lautaro Martinez. The Argentine’s contract is due to expire on June 30, 2023: there is therefore still time to be able to find an agreement but the negotiation is really struggling to take off.

It is evident that if a mind-boggling offer had come for Lautaro, it would have been the other sacrificed and not Lukaku. The Argentine likes him a lot Arsenal e Tottenham and also toAtletico Madrid but no one thought of putting those 90 million euros that would have been needed on the plate. His departure today is to be excluded but next summer without the renewal it would become reality.

Not even Nicolò will move Stretcher but the sirens from England keep blaring loud. The Liverpool has set his sights on Roberto Mancini’s national midfielder. The player has a contract expiring in 2024. A distant deadline but it is clear that an adjustment is needed to bring the Nerazzurri bigs, such as Vidal, Sanchez or Calhanoglu who earn more than double. Figures that Marcelo would also like to reach Brozovic. There is no time for the Croatian, his agreement expires in less than a year and the farewell for him seems really close if he is not satisfied.

Another footballer on which the magnifying glass must be pointed is Stefan the free. The Dutchman has arrived at zero, he is the oldest of the defense and his departure would guarantee a super capital gain. The contract expires on June 30, 2023 and it’s time for him too to figure out what to do.

Inter is called to lower the wage bill and the idea of ​​the Nerazzurri management is to get rid of those players, who have an important salary but which are not really the first choices.

Marotta he will have to be good at getting rid of elements like Arturo Vidal (6,5 milioni) o Alexis Sanchez (7 million), which I am not sure of the owners. But it would also be important to send players like Andrea away Pinamonti Matthias Neighbor, who earn a lot in proportion to their contribution in the field. In the end, however, the former Juventus CEO could leave the Nerazzurri. This hypothesis is becoming increasingly popular in these hours.

Inter will therefore have to be good at limiting the damage, trying to replace the starters in the best possible way but at the same time will have to try to hold on to the other champions in the squad to avoid a downsizing, which would really be sensational.
