Inter Milan need to raise €35m before the end of this month and one of the players expected to bring some of that in is Zinho Vanheusden.

Belgian newspaper Het Belang van Limburg reports the Nerazzurri are aware of the 19-year-old’s potential, which is why they want to include a buy-back clause when they sell him.

It’s claimed Arsenal are one of the clubs ‘interested’ in signing the centre-back, who still has three more years left on his contract at San Siro.

If he joins the Gunners, they can pay him a higher salary than Standard Liège, who are looking to make his temporary deal permanent.

He spent the last 18 months on loan with the Jupiler Pro League side and during the 2018/19 season, the defender made 30 starts across all competitions. 

Though the north London club are ‘interested’ in the Belgium U21 international, the buy-back clause that Inter want to include in the transfer does not appeal Unai Emery’s side.

If that’s not up for negotiation, Arsenal are unlikely to proceed with efforts to sign Vanheusden.
