Inter Milan explore market options in London: Gimenez and Goretzka monitored

Nerazzurri use Champions League trip to advance transfer talks

Inter Milan used their recent trip to London, during the Champions League clash between Tottenham and Atletico Madrid, to explore several transfer opportunities beyond their well-known interest in Guglielmo Vicario.

According to La Gazzetta dello Sport via Fcinter1908, sporting director Piero Ausilio and his deputy Dario Baccin held additional discussions while in England, taking advantage of the European stage to gather key market information.

Gimenez emerges as experienced option for defence

One of the names explored is José Giménez, a cornerstone of Atletico Madrid’s defence and captain of Uruguay. With his contract nearing expiration, he could represent a valuable opportunity.

Inter Milan are expected to lose defenders Francesco Acerbi and Stefan de Vrij on free transfers, making reinforcements essential. 

At the same time, uncertainty surrounds Alessandro Bastoni, who continues to attract strong interest from Barcelona.

Balance between youth and experience

While younger profiles like Tarik Muharemovic of Sassuolo are being monitored to build long-term value, Inter Milan are also looking for players ready to contribute immediately.

This is where Gimenez fits perfectly: an experienced, reliable defender who could provide stability during a transitional phase.

Midfield opportunity: Goretzka

Another name on Inter Milan’s radar is Leon Goretzka, who appears increasingly likely to leave Bayern Munich.

The German midfielder has reportedly been offered to several top Italian clubs and could become an opportunity under the right financial conditions, adding physicality and experience to Inter Milan’s midfield.

Strategy Taking Shape

Inter Milan’s activity in London highlights a clear strategy: combine emerging talents with proven players to remain competitive while preparing for a generational shift.

With multiple departures expected and several situations still unresolved, the Nerazzurri are laying the groundwork for what promises to be a pivotal summer transfer window.
