Inter Milan completed five incoming deals during the summer transfer window to reinforce Cristian Chivu’s squad.

According to Corriere della Sera via FCInterNews, Inter’s effort may prove insufficient to address all shortcomings.

Manuel Akanji, Andy Diouf, Petar Sucic, Ange-Yoan Bonny, and Luis Henrique have signed contracts at San Siro.

However, Inter failed to sign their top target, Ademola Lookman, from Atalanta.

Indeed, despite their relentless pursuit of the Nigerian ace, La Dea fended the Nerazzurri off.

In addition to Lookman, Inter had hoped to sign Manu Kone from Roma to bolster Chivu’s midfield options.

Yet, the Giallorossi were unwilling to offload the French star, forcing the Serie A runners-up to turn to Diouf.

Whether the former Lens man has what it takes to succeed in Italy’s top flight remains questionable.

Meanwhile, he may soon have a chance to prove himself when Inter take on Juventus in the famous Derby d’Italia.

Ultimately, it’s up to Chivu to decide.

However, there’s no doubt that Lookman and Kone would’ve been significant upgrades.
