"In the last few hours, the transfer market continues to offer surprises with Mateo Kovacic who will become a new Manchester City player and, with Marcelo Brozovic, in the crosshairs of Al Nassr and Barcelona, with the Saudi club that would have offered the Inter midfielder more than double the salary compared to what was proposed by the blaugrana... waiting to find an agreement with the Milanese team. For the former Chelsea and Inter player, team-mate of the Nerazzurri number 77, the Citizens will pay the Blues a total amount, between the fixed part and the bonus, of around 35 million euros. Between 20 and 25 million could be enough for Brozovic: but are we sure that one of the Nerazzurri's symbolic men is worth less than Kovacic?
Considering the last few seasons of the 1992 class, the answer seems rather obvious, given the qualities demonstrated first with Antonio Conte and then with Simone Inzaghi: a Scudetto, two Italian Cups, two Italian Super Cups and a Champions League final... always as a protagonist. Difficult, if the negotiation with Al Nassr goes through, to replace someone like Brozo, the beacon of the Nerazzurri midfield. Flexibility is one of its main characteristics: for him the form doesn't make the difference. In these seasons with the Nerazzurri, always growing, he has implemented and improved his game regardless of the position in which he is deployed.
Versatility, continuity of performance and metronome of the nerazzurri as well as of the Croatian national team absolute protagonist in recent years at European and World level: second place in Russia 2018, third in Qatar 2022, round of 16 at Euro 2020 and 2016, in addition to second place in the last Nations League lost on penalties against Spain. An important loss for Inter with Beppe Marotta and Piero Ausilio forced to replace him properly in a football where money continues to make the difference..."
I think that Croats are massively underrated. Imagine if Brozo or Kova were fucking Brasilians or British. Kova would be worth 60 and Brozo 70 mill minimum. Fuck this shit.
