Inter Milan could reignite their interest in Napoli’s Gioacomo Raspadori if they’re unable to sign Ademola Lookman.

This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews.

Inter Milan’s pursuit of Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman has certainly been encountering difficulties.

The Nerazuzrri have had two offers rejected for the 27-year-old Nigerian international. And they are not sure how much higher they’ll have to go after La Dea turned down €45 million including add-ons.

Therefore, Inter are looking around at other possible targets to bolster their attack if they’re unable to sign Lookman.

Inter Could Revive Raspadori Interest If Lookman Pursuit Falls Through

One forward player who has been on Inter’s radar for a long time is Giacomo Raspadori.

The Nerazzurri had already been targeting the Italian international when he was at Sassuolo.

And there had also been some links regarding a potential swap deal involving Raspadori and midfielder Davide Frattesi this summer.

That now looks unlikely to happen. After all, Frattesi looks set to stay at Inter after Cristian Chivu replaced Simone Inzaghi as coach.

However, Raspadori could still leave Napoli, where he is not exactly first-choice in attack.

Therefore, the 25-year-old could become a target for Inter in lieu of Lookman.
