French side Lens have joined Fiorentina and Cagliari in the race for Inter Milan castaway Sebastiano Esposito.

Per L’Equipe via FCInterNews, the Ligue 1 club is confident of pulling off another deal with the Nerazzurri.

Lens have only recently signed Martin Satriano from Inter for a reported fee of €5 million.

Despite Satriano’s injury-hit loan stint last term, Les Sang et Or had to sign the Uruguayan permanently.

Inter have placed Sebastiano Esposito on the market as they aim to raise funds for further signings.

Despite Fiorentina’s genuine interest, the clubs couldn’t find an agreement.

Indeed, La Viola will come nowhere near Inter’s €12m asking price.

Furthermore, they won’t go beyond the €6m threshold, meaning the deal will likely fall through.

On the other hand, Lens are contemplating another loan with an option to buy.

As for Inter, they would ideally sell Esposito outright as they need cash to finance their recruitment program.

However, another loan deal could be a necessary fallback option.
