gds - De Vrij is a strong candidate to get sold. Inter will probably have to sell 2 players, cause of the financial situation.

Lovely. :)

Sell De Vrij for 40m and Lautaro for +70m and get Milenkovic for 15m and Julian Alvarez for 20m. These two should be the priority to get sold before we think about selling the likes of Barella and Bastoni.

If gets sold i hope we go back to 4 players in the back. Altho i feel that Skriniar and Bastoni are loving those push up runs.

I don’t see that happening with Inzaghi here. His best success has come with a back 3. More likely we will get someone like Bremer or Milenkovic.

Honestly losing De Vrij, moving Skriniar/Bastoni central, and picking up a more athletic CB might help us overall. Would probably allow for a higher line.

Comisso will ask for 30m for Milenkovic or more, if he wants to sell him to Inter at all.

Crazy to sell De Vrij. Skriniar is my favourite player in the team but he rushes forward too much. Not the best candidate for the holding CB position. Bastoni can offer so much more in the LCB position. His diagonal pass is second to none and his dribbling is probably better than Dimarco's. It'll be a waste to fix Bastoni in the middle.

Nice game and opponent to play against following that nasty injury. Very good.

Skriniar rushes forward because that’s the tactic. If he played centrally he wouldn’t rush forward anymore. I agree with Bastoni he is so good going forward it would be tough to lose that. Skriniar has improved a lot going forward but he’s still king of awkward on the dribble sometimes. There are CB’s out there that would be better in that position.

Personally, I feel Stefan de Vrij is horribly underrated. The guy goes about playing his position with minimum fuss and great efficacy. Sometimes, you hardly even notice he is there but having him in the starting eleven is a great reassurance. It would be sad if he is the player the club elects to sacrifice in the summer.

I don't think Bremer is realistic. He will cost us 20-30 mln, and apparently Milan also.are after him. They can include Pobega in the deal, a player currently on loan in Torino.

He was one of the Top5 CBs in Europe last couple of years. This season, he had some weakish performances in the beginning, probably having transition from Conteball to Inzaghi ball like some other key players were/are experiencing. If he clicks with the new gameplay, I wouldn't want to sell him unless there's 50+ M on the table.

Skriniar as the de vrij replacement as a rock in CB would be perfect though, if you had someone like Bastoni at RCB (provided tactical discipline so we don't overextend)

It's reported Milenkovic has a 15m release clause. Surprisingly there are no rumors about him. Perhaps he was more of a Conte choice while management prefer other options.

If de Vrij selling is for economiccally reasons, I can see Romagnoli as a replecement. Before everyne cry, let see what don Beppe and Simone decide. If Simone think Romagnoli would be good in 3 system with Skrniar and Bastoni, I can see that happening. Every other options don't make sense economically.
De Vrij would be 30y old and most of the big teams in Europe are already pretty stuck at the back, so I don't expect many suitors who could splash a big sum on de Vrij. And Milenkovic or Bremer would make the economically argument irrelevant. Romagnoli is a free agent. I can see Calha 2.0 here.

Conte and Spurs is the biggest destination candidate for me regarding De Vrij. I would sell De Vrij even for a decent price because I think we want to shift to a higher line in defence and that's not for De Vrij, specially in the future. Low line is not modern.

Dutch media reported that because De Vrij contract extension isn't going easily we are willing to sell him for 20M this winter. :yao:

Oh and the source was calciomercato.

To be exact talks for De Vrij extension have been put on hold since last spring. He currently earns 3.8m and he's asking for 4.5m, which we had agreed to but then we stopped everything because of the financial situation. Imo they're waiting to see how much they can get for De Vrij next summer. If the offer is worth it, he will be sold. Else, he will stay and probably sign an extension.
