Any Manchester United idea of a move for Inter Milan defender Federico Dimarco appear to be dead in the water after he signed a new deal at the club, and affirmed his desire to remain where he is.
Tuttomercatoweb cover comments from the defender today, made to Inter TV, after he extended his contract with the Champions League finalists to 2027 earlier this week.
The defender has been impressing at Inter since returning from a loan club at Hellas Verona in 2021, his second successive spell away from the club after joining Inter in a €5m deal in 2018.
He’s now very much the first choice right-back at the club and that’s reportedly put him on the radar of other clubs in Europe, namely Manchester United.
Those reports had indicated Manchester United could look to use Antony Martial, who they are keen to move on, as part of the deal in an attempt to sweeten it for Inter Milan.
It seems that won’t work, though, as Dimarco has indicated he’s not looking to move on at any point in the near future after signing his new deal.
“I’m actually happy with what I’m doing, the team’s objectives are more important. I’m happy with how we’re going, and we hope to continue like this,” he said.
“There have been many beautiful moments in these years spent together, if I have to think of one, I think of the Italian Cup final, after the victory against Juve, when I sang together with them.
“If I had to say something, I would tell them that they have to put up with me for a few more years.”
