Inter and Parma continued negotiations today for Ange-Yoan Bonny, but have still not reached a full agreement for the striker.
Multiple sources including Sky Sport Italia, Calciomercato.it and La Gazzetta dello Sport note that there was another meeting this afternoon between the two clubs.
However, even after whittling down some more details, they have not yet reached the stage where we can say the deal is done.
According to reports, the overall cost of circa €25m is confirmed, but the issue is how that sum is split between fixed fee and the various add-ons.
Inter continue to hope they will get the move over the line eventually, though there is added pressure by the interest from VfB Stuttgart.
If the German side agrees to sell Woltemade to Bayern Munich, then some of that money can be reinvested in purchasing Bonny from Parma.
The 21-year-old is seen as an understudy to Marcus Thuram, whereas Francesco Pio Esposito is taking that role for Lautaro Martinez.
The Nerazzurri can save a lot of money by simply promoting the youth academy product rather than going for Manchester United’s Rasmus Hojlund.
