Inter Milan are reportedly put off by the €70 million price tag from Monaco to sign forward player Maghnes Akliouche.

This according to French outlet L’Equipe, via FCInterNews.

Right now, Inter Milan are still all-in on signing Ademola Lookman.

However, the Nerazzurri are accepting the possibility that their pursuit of the Nigerian could fail.

Inter see Lookman as a perfect opportunity to bolster their attack with a proven commodity from within Serie A. However, they will not break the bank to sign the 27-year-old.

And if Inter cannot sign Lookman for what they consider a reasonable fee, they will sign a different attacker.

Inter Milan Put Off €70M Monaco Asking Price For Maghnes Akliouche

According to French outlet L’Equipe, another target that has emerged for Inter has been Monaco forward Magnes Akliouche.

The 23-year-old certainly impressed in a recent friendly match against Inter. He scored the opening goal within a minute.

Therefore, it was not necessarily a surprise to see the Nerazzurri approach Monaco with an interest in signing Akliouche.

According to L’Equipe, however, the price tag proved to be prohibitive.

Monaco want a fee of €70 million for Akliouche. And that is more than Inter are able to spend.
