Palmeiras are holding firm on an asking price of €30 million for Inter Milan and West Ham United target Richard Rios.

This according to Spanish outlet Mundo Deportivo, via FCInterNews.

Links have emerged between Inter Milan and Palmeiras midfielder Richard Rios over the last couple days.

Reportedly, the Colombian international has come onto the Nerazzurri’s radar as a possible replacement for Hakan Calhanoglu in the event they lose him to Galatasaray or another club.

Rios has a release clause in his contract worth €100 million. However, it would not take that fee to sign the 25-year-old from Palmeiras.

On the contrary, the Brazilian giants would likely accept an offer of around €30 million.
