Straight after the transfer deadline shut, we covered some of the post-mortems, which included that of Victor Moses’ failed move to Inter.
The Nigeria international had already been loaned out to Antonio Conte’s side for the second half of last season, and the Serie A side reportedly approached Chelsea once again late on transfer deadline day to get something else sorted.
At the time, the belief was there simply wasn’t enough time to get everything over the line, but Calciomercato have it differently on Monday.
The Italian website explain that Radja Nainggolan’s failed move to Cagliari ‘suggested to Inter not to further engulf their squad in a sector’ where they already had an abundance of players.
Achraf Hakimi, Victor Moses, Danilo D’Ambrosio, Matteo Darmian and even Ivan Perisic can all play down the wings in Conte’s three at the back system, and it was simply felt the arrival of Moses wasn’t needed.
That being said, the Chelsea player doesn’t appear like he’ll be staying in London, with Spartak Moscow set to sign him and ‘medical examinations already scheduled’.
