Inter Milan are turning to the transfer market and finding a replacement for injured Denzel Dumfries.
Inter want to rejoin João Canceloaccording to La Gazzetta dello Sport. The Portuguese’s temporary return would be an ideal solution to compensate for the absence of injured Denzel Dumfries.
Cancelo fired from Saudi Arabia
Cancelo is authorized to leave his Saudi club, Al Hilal this winter. It has everything to do with his strained relationship with coach Simone Inzaghi.
This presents a golden opportunity to Inter. For the Italians, Cancelo represents the ideal replacement for Dumfries in the short term. The defender underwent ankle surgery at the end of December.
Inter want to bring Cancelo back to San Siro
The Portuguese, who played at Inter from 2017 to 2018, can join Serie A. The Milan club wants to get him on loan for six months. Only his salary could still stand in the way of this agreement.
Cancelo receives fifteen million euros per year at Al Hilal. A sum that Inter cannot and does not want to pay.
Cancelo, ideal replacement for Dumfries
The Dutchman will likely need several months of rehabilitation. Cancelo, capable of playing on both wings, could replace him during this period.
After that, Dumfries seems assured of regaining its starting place. Inter want to extend his contract.
However, Inter must face FC Barcelona or Juventus, who are also interested in the Portuguese.
