Can you be any less specific?!Why?
I don't know about him. Is he really that necessary for that price? We got Bro for the midfield and surely there are cheaper and better skilled players for the right wing?
@JJM - Joao Mario is best option for our RW so we must give for him that 40m, he is talented, resale, hardwork player who can play in every position in the mid, also i watched his defence work is too so Mancini good, Mancini will love him! Witsel, Joao Mario and Garay for Murillo to save Brozovic and will be perfect summer mercato, with Ranocchia and Eder sales we can cover Witsel price, with Jovetic (15m) and Melo to China (5-10m) we can add extra funds for GJ in January, perfect scenario!
He has been played as CM most of the time, historically, yes. Here's a detailed breakdown @ transfermarkt.I'm fairly certain Joao Mario is more of a central midfielder rather than winger, though he played wing for Portugal. Not sure about his club position ATM, but I remember a couple of games in 14/15 and he was definitely a central mid and he still looks like one.
Santos tried to emulate Atletico Madrid tactics all tournament (and failed miserably, even though they won) and pushed Andre Santos and Joao Mario wide like Simeone would do with Koke and Saul.
Its a joke bro or I cant joke anymore?

The portuguese media Record today talk about Inter and Joao Mario "very near". Even if the clause is 60 million "there is already a deal between the clubs for 40 million, there are only a few details that also involve mediators Pini Zahavi and Kia Joorabchian. The player has long been a desired of Erick Thohir and the arrival of Suning gave the Nerazzurri a new economic capacity".
blivious:
Reports in Portugal suggest Inter have agreed a €40m deal for Sporting CP’s Joao Mario.
The Nerazzurri have been heavily linked with the midfielder, who won Euro 2016 with Portugal this summer.
Now Record is reporting that a deal has been agreed between the clubs worth €40m, with only the final details left to be worked out.
Joao Mario is expected to become the first big signing of the Suning era, after the Chinese consortium took over the club.
