Roma midfielder Manu Kone could reportedly join Inter Milan toward the end of the summer transfer window.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews , Gian Piero Gasperini has opened the door to the move.
With Inter Milan set to miss out on Ademola Lookman, they have turned their attention to other targets.
Indeed, Manu Kone has emerged as one of the club’s top targets heading into the final stretch of the transfer window.
Kone is more than just a thought for Inter. Indeed, at 24, he perfectly fits Oaktree’s new transfer policy.
Furthermore, he enjoyed a stellar first season in Serie A.
Signed from Borussia Monchengladbach last summer, Kone quickly became a permanent fixture in Roma’s starting XI.
Therefore, the Giallorossi were initially reluctant to discuss his departure.
However, with Gasperini eager to reinforce his squad, Roma may need to offload Kone to raise funds for new signings.
Meanwhile, Gasperini has refused to rule out the Frenchman’s exit, fueling Inter’s hopes of striking a deal.
