On December 24th, we carried a report from Gazzetta dello Sport, who explained ‘negotiations are in progress’ between Inter Milan and Chelsea for Marcos Alonso.
FcInterNews once again reiterates the left-back is on ‘top of the wish list’ of the Serie A side and they’ve already made a first proposal, a loan with redemption, a few weeks back.
However, the Blues have ‘made a wall’ and are demanding €35m for the Spain international, which is €10m more than they asked a month ago.
Conte’s presence at Inter is the reason the Europa League winners are unwilling to allow their defender move to the San Siro.
The former Juventus manager was at Stamford Bridge between 2016 and 2018, and after taking a break for a year, he returned to management before the start of the season.
The Inter manager won a lawsuit against Chelsea and the west London club were forced to pay €10m to him. Therefore, Roman Abramovich and Chelsea ‘don’t do favourable treats’ to their former boss and his current club.
FcInterNews adds the London club would prefer selling Alonso to a Spanish club, where he has admirers, than to Inter. Therefore, Inter are looking at alternatives.
