Inter Milan striker Mehdi Taremi reportedly wants to stay in Europe, and would reject a move to the Saudi Pro League.

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

Mehdi Taremi joined Inter Milan last summer. He arrived on a free transfer after his contract with Porto had expired.

However, things have just never quite worked out for Taremi at Inter.

The 32-year-old scored just three goals in his first season in a Nerazzurri shirt. It would be an understatement to say that this was below expectations.

Therefore, there have been persistent rumours that Taremi could be on his way out of the San Siro after just one season.

Last month, Sky Sport Italia reported that the Iranian will leave Inter.

Inter Milan will want to sell Taremi this summer. There is little doubt about that.

For starters, any transfer fee that the Nerazzurri were to receive for the Iranian would represent a tidy capital gain considering they signed him on a free transfer. And that could be reinvested.

Then, Inter would be happy to offload Taremi’s €6 million gross wages next season.

As far as Taremi himself, he would be willing to consider offers to leave Inter this summer.

However, the 32-year-old is keen to stay in Europe. He feels that he still has more left to give at the top level even if it is not at Inter.

Therefore, reports Tuttosport, Taremi will turn down offers from the Saudi Pro League.
