Torino are one of the easiest Italian clubs to buy from. They just never have anything worth buying.
they did, we have two of their players in the squad, one of them is way later than expected but still good enough :D

Romagnoli wants to go to Lazio. He's probably going to replace Luiz Felipe, or Acerbi in the long run.

He'll only go to another club if there's a much better offer and if Lotito tries to milk the player's desire for significantly less.

Romagnoli currently earns 5m. Milan's offer is 3.5m. Lazio can't even come close to these numbers. There's no chance Romagnoli will end up at Lazio.

Didn't milan supporters some years ago say Romagnoli is better than Skriniar? What happened

Yeah, usually if you wanna buy crap. Cairo asked 100m€ for Belotti at some years (of course would have settled for less but even 60m€ sounded ridiculous), now he walks away for free. Bremer feels quite legit even though Juric can make defenders look better than what they really are (Rhamani and Kumublla in Verona as an example).

I'm still sure Bremer would be fine at Inter to replace De Vrij.

Inter are reportedly leading the race to sign Matthias Ginter as a free agent at the end of the season.

The 2014 Germany World Cup winner sees his contract expire in June 2022 and according to Calciomercato.com, the Serie A champions and Barcelona are among the clubs interested in securing his services.

His €3m-a-year salary is sustainable for the Nerazzurri who are reportedly in pole position to sign the 27-year-old at the end of the season.

Ginter has played 12 games across all competitions with Borussia Monchengladbach this term and can sign a pre-contract agreement with any club from January ahead of a free transfer in the summer.

Inter have qualified for the Champions League last 16 for the first time in ten years and will therefore earn circa €60m in prize money.

Ginter is not the only player monitored by the Nerazzurri. According to the same report, Ajax goalkeeper André Onana is set to move to San Siro at the end of his contract in June.

Inter are also keeping a close eye on Napoli’s Lorenzo Insigne. The Italy star is nowhere close to reaching an agreement to extend his expiring contract with the Partenopei.

> If Bayern don`t want him, I`m sure he is ours! Anyone knows if Bayern would need him?

Bayern is losing Niklas Sule so Ginter would fit there, but I didn't see recently any news linking Ginter to Bayern.

It's rumoured Ginter is on Bayern's list but Salihamidzic isn't really fond of him and he prefers Rudiger.

Ginter is asking for a four-year contract with a salary of 3.5 million, while Inter will not go above 2.5.
The German defender would not be De Vriy's replacement but an alternative to Skriniar. If the Dutchman leaves, the Nerrazurri will target Bremer from Torino.

He was struggling a lot at Dortmund also due to the fact he didn't have a fixed position but instead they were using him wherever there was a need (CB, RB, DM). There's also the possibility he wasn't ready to handle the pressure of a top club as he left Freiburg to join Dortmund at a very young age.

He has turned things around at Gladbach where he mostly plays as a CB/RCB and he was even a starter in Germany under Jogi Low. He isn't a starter now as Flick has switched to a back 4, he's behind Rudiger and Sule in the pecking order and Flick prefers more attacking options for rb.

He has been very solid defensively, very consistent, he has great passing and he has been one of the best CBs of the league. He is never going to be a leader but we don't need one. We need someone we can count on when one of our starting CBs is unavailable and Ginter is perfect for this role.

I'd argue that is the one thing Inter badly needs, for the central CB role and across all areas of the pitch, to steer us when we veer off course, which is a routine occurrence for us unfortunately.

You watch a lot of Dortmund, right? Note the difference between talented but insecure Burki and communicative and ocmmanding Kobel. Night and day, especially in set piece situations.

Ginter is more mousy than DeFry, goes about his duties quietly, when things go bad he won't be the one to lean on and will the team forward.

I'm still sure Bremer would be fine at Inter to replace De Vrij.
Can you detail why? What qualities in particular make him a perfect fit for the central CB role? His whoscored say his strengths are aerial duels and intercepting, but his weaknesses are passing.

According Sport Mediaset, Inter is close to secure on loan Malang Sarr, the defender of Chelsea.
That escalated quickly. Is this guy even playing at Chelsea?
