Romano - Inter are pushing for Correa and he wants to stay in Italy. Everton was never an option for him.

gds - Lazio dropped the price to 31M. Now summit between Marotta, Ausilio and the agent Lucci for the response from Inter. The two clubs don't talk to each other. LOL

the funniest thing is that Lazio don't want to talk with Inter directly and vice-versa and everything is done by Correa's agent Lucci. They act like divorced marriage which argue about their children.

Yeah, this is done.

I'm hoping for Belotti or Scamacca also, and then at least the forward line is complete without any walking hospital beds being relied on.

It looks like the deal is done. It was totally predictable.

Personally i would go for Jovic or Coutinho but my gut feeling tells me in the we will sign Tucu Correa for around 30m. It just makes too much sense for everyone involved. Serie A proven, cheaper and younger than Zapata, Inzaghi's favorite while he's entirely useless to Sarri and Lotito desperately needs to sell to sort out the liquidity issues of Lazio.

Just a bluff from Marotta to force Lotito's hand. I doubt there's anything serious with Belotti as he was always very low on Inter's list. Marotta knows Lotito can't afford to play hardball and keep the player at Lazio. Correa is unsettled at Lazio, he's a bad fit for Sarri and Lazio need to raise funds from his sale to sign Kostic.

I would have prefered it to be 25m plus 5m bonuses but it is what it is. I have never been overly excited about the prospect of signing Correa but now that he's here i will try to be a bit positive about him.

He's a good fit for our system, he was a personal request of the coach and he could be a long term Alexis replacement. He's going to be decent as long as Inzaghi is at Inter but i don't expect him to be a difference maker.

Imo we should also sign another forward when there's so much uncertainty around Sanchez. If Marotta could get Belotti for 10-15m or Kean on loan, it would be great. I am not convinced about Scamacca.

It's 99,9 percent done deal...

Correa goals reminds me Hakimi sometimes. I think if Conte still there, He will try Correa as RWB.

He is Hakimi in CF position. Just a bit slower but with better dribbling.

I'm disappointed if we pay 30-31m€ straight cash without any bonuses. That's a lot of guaranteed money.

His stats have been between 11-13 (g+a) for the past 3 seasons in Serie A. But also what needs to be noted is his playing time has been 2k minutes per season, which equals around 22 full matches.

In comparison though, Alexis Sanchez has a bit better stats with 13-14 g+a in his Inter seasons (Serie A) and his playing time has been almost half of Correa's.

But let's hope Correa will find a new gear at Inter.

I don't know about scamacca, moise kean or belotti. Maybe I would give chance to belloti with some ultra cheap deal, but getting any other name from that list is just hoarding mediocre players imo. Save the money and try something else when there are better names out there. Hell, i m not even convinced by correa that much, but he is probably our best option given everything. That's how much our choices for attackers suck right now.

In the other thread i said that inzaghi probably prefers playing with fast and technical strikers. But Biasin just said nope, he wanted a striker, but he made an execption for Correa and at the end he prefers him, even if he don't plays the position he wanted.:yao: Hopefully it was the right decision. Dzeko can't play all games, hope he's informed about that.
