It has been announced from several different parties and it is what will happen. After the Laizo game on Sunday Inter will focus on the transfer market dealings of Januay where they will try to make Roberto Mancini happy. Mancini has asked and will ask for other players as well to have a chance on third place. There will be a meeting after the game where it is very probable that president Erick Thohir will be present as well as Mancini, Ausilio, Bolingbroke, Fassone and Zanetti.
Wingers are the main objective
What is sorely needed in a squad that was created for a 3-5-2 are wingers. At the moment there are none at Mancini’s disposal. Unless players are sold (Guarin?) Inter will aim for loan deals. So which are the possible players? According to La Gazzetta dello Sport these are the names:
“Ezequiel Lavezzi is a possibility but will be difficult in January, but you never know. However, the economic situation that Laurent Blanc has to take into consideration at PSG (due to FFP sanctions) could slow everything down. Then there is Alessio Cerci (currently injured) which many teams are after. Atletico Madrid are aware that they made a wrong choice in signing him and the former Torino player is keen on returning to Italy. The problem is that Atletico want cash, at least 11 million Euro, but it depends on what happens in January”, writes la Gazzetta.
The journalist then continues with the other possible names should Cerci and Lavezzi prove too difficult: “They are keeping their eyes on Gignac (possible in June though) and André Ayew (who could renew his contract with OM). There is also the alternative Salah at Chelsea and the ideas to try for Januzaj (United) and Milner (City)”, according to GdS.
According to the paper, it will have to be a low cost operation in January. Unless there is a big sale that could open up scenarios that are improbable now.
