Inter, Ausilio out in the open: "Romero interests us, Perisic doesn't.
Secondo Tuttomercatoweb.
Why it matters
Inter's interest in Cristian Romero highlights the club's desire to strengthen its defense ahead of the Serie A season. Romero, with his experience in the Premier League and his past in Serie A, could bring solidity and quality to the Nerazzurri's defensive department, which is essential for competing at the highest levels. The confirmation of interest from Piero Ausilio underlines the importance of this potential purchase in the context of the transfer market.

Cristian Romero has become Inter's big target to strengthen the defense available to Cristian Chivu. The arrival in Milan of the representatives of the Argentine centre-back, at the same time as the return of sporting director Piero Ausilio, confirms that the negotiations are getting to the heart of things. The Nerazzurri club is working on two fronts: on the one hand the dialogue with the player's entourage, who has already expressed his willingness to return to Serie A, and on the other the contacts with Tottenham, the owner of the card. However, before negotiating with Spurs, Inter aims to reach an agreement with Romero to strengthen their position. Among the guests on the opening evening of the 23rd edition of the "Magna Graecia Film Festival" in Soverato, there was Piero Ausilio, Inter's sporting director, who confirmed to Sky Sport regarding Romero: "There is certainly an interest that we are showing in the player and the club. These are long things, but there is certainly interest, let's see". On the Nerazzurri's seasonal objectives: "I think that Inter have never hidden themselves, we always try to do our best. And if the best is, like this year, to win two titles, this is a good thing. There is no season in which Inter starts and can be satisfied with a qualification for the Champions League or a placing. We will try to do as much as possible to bring something home, then sometimes we succeed and sometimes not, but we will always do our best." On post-Dumfries: "There's no name, there are some assessments we're making. Unfortunately Khalaili had this problem and it slowed us down a bit, but it's part of football. Then we forget that we're still at the end of July and there's more than a month to go until the end of the transfer market. We have all the tranquility and serenity to slowly find the project and the right player for our needs. Perisic? Absolutely not." On the sale of Cocchi, who went to Padova on loan with the right of option and counter-option: "He was also close to Catanzaro, who are lucky enough to have very good owners and a sporting director. I say this because I had the opportunity to know them and talk to them, we must be proud to have a club like that. Cocchi was an opportunity, then he went to Padova, but there will certainly be other players to collaborate together." On the possible confirmation of Pavard: "Let's see if he will stay, these are evaluations that we will make later, I repeat that we are at the beginning and we have all the time to make the evaluations we need. There are areas in which Inter are certainly better placed than others. Up front, for example, we have four very strong attackers. So I don't think there will be any changes." On captain Lautaro Martinez: "I hear from Lautaro often. Obviously he is disappointed with how the final went, but he is equally motivated to come back and do well for his club straight away. He is the captain of Inter, I feel he is very motivated. Now it is right that he rests a bit, he is doing it with his family and soon he will join the team and do the great things that he has always done and that he has accustomed us to."
What happens now
Inter are expected to undergo an intense negotiation phase with Tottenham for Cristian Romero, but first they will have to reach an agreement with the player. Romero's willingness to return to Serie A could facilitate negotiations, making the operation more feasible. With the start of the Serie A season approaching, the club hopes to close the deal quickly to integrate the defender into Cristian Chivu's squad.
