Apparently there's interest from Eintracht Frankfurt but Pinamonti himself doesn't want to play overseas and also rejected a move to Lille previously. What kind of dipshit shit is this? :palm: Dude should absolutely be leaping at the opportunity to play in the Bundesliga or a team known for developing youth like Lille.. Very disappointing and shows a complete lack of maturity on his part if true.

That's just jumping to conclusions. He was clearly (and rightfully) lead on to believe that there is a place for him at Inter, that's why he was bought back. Maybe his agent is advising him to hold out for a Serie A club because he believes he can land a deal of some sort. Every italian player would, and should, see french football as a significant step down in quality.

The question is, is he really that bad in training sessions that Conte prefers Perisic as an ad-hoc striker? Not even a cameo against fucking Benevento, really Conte?

He was bought back because of the gentlemen agreement with Genoa. We probably tried to flip him on loan somewhere and replace him with Gervinho but that didn't happen eventually.

Probably Pinamonti just doesn't have the required movement and positioning yet, maybe the needed aggression is also lacking. I'm totally seeing Conte preferring Perisic because Perisic is a smart player.

I understand Bundesliga, and especially Eintracht, doesn't sound enticing but if the interest from Eintracht is real he's an idiot not to go there. They have a well-functioning system, a steady management, no pressure, they have their ways with forwards (even Andre Silva looks good) and they play with two forwards. They recently sold Bas Dost and they only have Andre Silva and a couple of youngsters who barely played. Pinamonti would get playing time in there.

As Cafe said, he was reluctantly brought back out of obligation, not because the coach valued his skills. As brehme said, another crap loan to some relegation side isn't really going to do him much but that is all he's going to get in Italy. As Drago said, Frankfurt would've been a great option.

And as everyone has said, if he can't even get minutes in home matches against the likes of Spezia and Crotone, when the fuck is he going to play? What's the point of keeping him? Even our first Coppa match is against Fiorentina as opposed to Pordenone or something.

I'm totally okay with selling him outright if we get the chance.

I think he's got potential to be a good serie A player one day, but I can never see him exploding alla-Icardi or another similar type of striker.

Could also be a late-bloomer like many Italians. Hopefully by then we will have moved on.

Doesn't even have to be a late-bloomer, he's turning 22 in May. :D

He reminds me of Emile Heskey, scores about 3 a season but still regarded as a highly talented footballer.

I want the kid to come well, its hard to see right now especially when you are playing under a coach who doesn't want you there.

How was Emile Heskey regarded as a highly talented footballer? If anything Heskey was considered a fat donkεy whose only purpose was to win headers for Michael Owen and it caused surprise to people when they saw him at a high level for so long.

Did we pay Pinamonti 18M? Or am i wrong?

In this case, i think it's not so easy selling him without a minuvalenza...

8m + bonuses that may double or more the price iirc. Maybe that's why we are reluctant to play him.

8m€ + 12m€ bonuses. I think it's quite a "fuck you" to Genoa and our "gentlemen agreement" if we circumvent that by not playing him at all and then selling him away. :D

I guess Preziosi is smarter than that and have included clauses to the deal so that options will trigger also if he's moved out of Inter, or something. The initial move was anyway just to get plusvalenza in the summer of 2019. It included that we buy him back next summer.

But let's see what happens, a loan deal with an option to buy is probably I guess. Also that the option won't be used if it's it the range of 15m€.

Antonio Conte is blocking Andrea Pinamonti from leaving Inter to join Benevento, according to a report in Italy tonight.

The newly-promoted club had reached an agreement with the Nerazzurri for a paid initial loan with an option to buy for €15-16 million, along with an unspecified percentage of any future transfer fee.

But, as per transfer expert Alfredo Pedulla, Conte will not let the deal go through until he has greater reassurances over Inter’s ability to secure a replacement before the end of the January transfer window.

The Nerazzurri cannot spend for signings until they complete sales, with Christian Eriksen another candidate to leave, but on the other hand it seems Conte does not want to risk losing players before he is certain they can be replaced, for numerical reasons.

Conte neither uses him nor allows him to leave. WTF really?!

Of course this is entirely Conte's fault, because "transfer expert" Alfredo Pedulla knows everything and always speaks the truth in the headline for clickbait.

Conte is well within his rights to ask for replacements for Pinamonti & Eriksen, just as he would be if Inter were selling Radu. Just because a player is not used doesn't mean that a replacement is not needed. But I doubt Conte has the power to block sales. I suspect our lack of activity in the mercato is down to Ausilio and Marotta's failure to deal with our fucked up financial situation. This one is not on Conte.

I know it is only a rumor but i quite disagree about Pinamonti and Eriksen. Even Perishit is ahead of the former in the pecking order so what is the idea to looking for replacement, cuz at this moment Pinamonti is not even bench option, it is more like permanent ban?
Almost same goes for Eriksen. We need a new player for last 5-10 min of the game? Why? Vecino is also coming soon i guess, so what is the point to have a bunch of bench midfielders?

You don't think Inter need a 4th striker? Or another midfielder, after Nianggolan & Eriksen have gone?

Since the Chinese pull the plug I don't see dire need to make some low cost shitty deals. In case that both of Perisic and Pina leave, then it's ok to bring 4th option. Absolutely same applies for Eriksen. If a miracle happens and we could SELL ( not dry loan) him & Vecino, we'll need one midfielder, otherwise no.
