Report – Inter Milan & Basel Talks For Argentina U21 Star At Risk Of Collapse

Talks between Inter Milan and Basel for the transfer of defender Tomas Palacios are reportedly at risk of collapsing.

This according to Italian outlet FCInterNews. They report that the two clubs cannot agree on the fee for a purchase option.

Defender Tomas Palacios joined the Nerazzurri last summer. They reportedly paid a fee of over €10 million to sign him.

However, so far Palacios has not exactly become a fixture in the Nerazzurri team.

The young defender received only a couple of brief run-outs off the bench for Inter last summer.

Then in January, Tomas Palacios joined Monza on loan.

The intention for Palacios’s loan at Monza was clearly for the young defender to receive more playing time.

And the Argentine did certainly feature more than he had for Inter.

However, at the same time, it was a difficult environment for Palacios. The Brianzoli were in a spiral towards relegation, and so it was often more experienced defenders who started.

In any event, Tomas Palacios is back at Inter this summer after the end of his loan at the U-Power Stadium.

Inter and Basel have been in talks for the Swiss side to sign Palacios on loan.

However, according to FCInterNews, the negotiations are at risk of collapsing.

The clubs have been unable to agree on a fee for a purchase option. Inter want to set it at €5-6 million, while Basel are hoping for lower.
