Inter Milan remain in the driver’s seat in the race to sign Parma striker Ange-Yoan Bonny despite growing interest from Stuttgart.
Per Sky Sport via FCInterNews, the Bundesliga giants have made a late attempt to hijack the Frenchman’s transfer to the San Siro.
However, Cristian Chivu’s charges are still in the lead after taking concrete steps to land the 21-year-old.
Indeed, Ange-Yoan Bonny is one step away from reuniting with his former manager for a reported fee of €25 million.
Stuttgart entering the race could only force the Nerazzurri to close the deal faster.
Though Stuttgart’s sudden interest in the Parma ace could complicate the matter, there’s no room for panic.
Indeed, Bonny has already agreed on personal terms with Inter.
Therefore, it’s only up to Parma to give their go-ahead.
Meanwhile, Chivu’s men are no longer interested in Canadian superstar Jonathan David.
Despite Inter’s long-term interest, he’s now on the verge of signing for Juventus on a Bosman deal.
