Inter Milan have lined up Genoa midfielder Morten Frendrup as an alternative target to Atalanta’s Ederson this summer.
This according to today’s print edition of Milan-based newspaper Il Messaggero, via FCInter1908.
Inter Milan’s interest in Ederson is clear. The Brazilian is reportedly the Nerazzurri’s top target to replace Hakan Calhanoglu in the event that the 31-year-old leaves this summer.
However, it is far from clear that Inter will be able to afford a move for Ederson.
Reportedly, Atalanta want a fee of at least €60 million for the 25-year-old. That would require Inter to make significant sales in order to finance a deal.
According to Il Messaggero, therefore, Inter are also looking at other targets in midfield.
One such potential target would be Genoa midfielder Morten Frendrup.
The Dane has enjoyed a couple of outstanding seasons in Serie A. This after helping the Grifone to win promotion back to the top flight in the 2022-23 campaign.
According to Il Messaggero, Inter see Frendrup as a potential reinforcement in midfield. The 24-year-old would certainly cost less than Atalanta’s Ederson would.
