Inter haven’t stopped dreaming of the De Paul coup, but the situation is getting more complicated also in view of a sensational maneuver at Juve
At the Juventus there is no more non-transferable. This is the line of ownership that prepares for the partial or total re-foundation of the club pending the outcome of the new ones prosecutorial investigations.
Also Manuel Locatelli it could therefore end up on the list of expendables if an indispensable offer arrives. That is to say that with around 50 million, the bianconeri would be ready to let him go, even immediately e without much hesitation.
At least thirty million of the money from this hypothetical sale could be turned over toAtletico Madridto try to take Rodrigo DePaul, one of the great protagonists of the World Cup in Qatar. De Paul knows Serie A, he has intensity, personality and class. He is the type of player who would guarantee great balance in midfield and would offer Allegri enormous quality and flexibility. It is no mystery that the Nerazzurri also like De Paul.
But for Inter, the De Paul coup becomes increasingly unlikely given the possibility of Juventus being included. In Madrid they would like the player to be raised and therefore held, but De Paul broke long ago with Diego Simeoneand the roads seem destined to part.
Juve gives Locatelli away and Inter blocks De Paul’s shot
But where could Manuel Locatelli go? According to the Spanish newspaper ASil Real Madrid has put Locatelli in his sights for a few days. In plan A of the Blancos it is Bellingham. Immediately after, however, there are Fernandez and the former Sassuolo.
Per Massimiliano Allegri there would be no problem. He is willing to deprive himself of Locatelli, perhaps at the end of the season, just to get to De Paul. Who can instead leave immediately is Weston McKennie. It is clear that Juventus, faced with an offer of twenty million euros, could sell the American midfielder. McKennie is liked by Borussia Dortmund, Tottenham and Chelsea.
However, the Juventus coach asked for reinforcements immediately. The most desired is Diogo Dalot of Manchester United. It would not be ruled out then a deal that leads to Rick Karsdorp of Rome, to be taken low-cost, given the critical situation between player and club. The problem is that Rick would like to leave Italy, perhaps to play in Spain. Finally Juve would also like Fresneda del Vallaloid.
De Paul, impossible dream for Inter
De Paul, on the other hand, wouldn’t mind returning to Italy at all. Many teams like the Argentine: he is a jolly which would come in handy anywhere. And it’s really a good revenge for Rodrigo, who until a month ago was given in a descending parable. Downloaded by Simeone, the midfielder proved to be a fundamental element for the coach staircases.
However, all of this damaged Inter, who thought they could take advantage of the dark moment in Spain to ask for him loan with right of redemption.
There was also talk of an offer from Atletico for Hakan Calhanoglu of money plus De Paul. In practice, the club coached by Diego Simeone would have proposed Rodrigo De Paul plus 15 million for the Turkish player before the World Cup.
But after the World Cup all this has become more than unlikely. The former Udinese midfielder proved to be a sample: rocky in interdiction, indispensable with his rides and precious as a locker room man.
In Argentina they write that De Paul would have been decisive to have Leo Messi in Qatar. In fact, it seems that it was De Paul and Paredes who convinced La Pulce not to abandon the national team after the disappointment of Russia 2018.
