Im not expecting someone like Kvara but at least trying to get someone and not to try always on the same player. As i said, Dia would be interesting. Serie A proven, would earn less then Thuram. This are the kind of players we can get. I don't see why Thuram should be a better solution, really. At this point Nzola would be an option too...
We can't afford Dia and shouldn't go after him just cuz he was a one man show on a shit team for one season.

Thuram is also Bundesliga proven then by your metric

he might also join us, on loan, if West Ham cannot find a schmuck to spend as much as they have.
I hope not we already have our token useless striker in Correa

Nzola would be okay for 4th option, if he costs like a 4th option that is.


Dia is an interesting player but he's not one that Inter should be following. On the other hand, Thuram has played in CL, has played for a good (albeit inconsistent) Bundesliga team and has interesting characteristics that we like to highlight, apart from getting some goals.

On paper, Thuram was a player we should have been going for. I was advocating for this move earlier, but wasn't expecting us to pay him over 6m net - assuming that's true. That's what I'd expect us to throw at Firmino for a 2 year + optional 3rd. Thuram I expected at 4.5m net, or 5m just because we have the growth decree in our favor.


Retegui on the other hand, I agree. Not a player we should be following. Decent scorer and has some good moves, but if Boca felt they have to loan him about for years and not use him, they probably saw that something was missing, at least mentally.
If Thuram would come as third striker i would not complain. Firmino as second for example, Thuram third. But this will not happen.

Scoring many goals in that farmer league is anyway easier then in Serie A

Don't have one.
Honestly, it would be nice if we can somehow keep lukaku as well. He and thuram against some poor team with old school and slow italian centrebacks. I just wanna see it once :lol:

We still need to sign another forward. And that's if we assume Correa is staying. Else we need another 2. It remains to be seen the kind of forward we will be looking from now on. Will we still play the waiting game for Lukaku hoping Chelsea will accept a loan? Could we make a move for Scamacca? Could we go for a low cost forward? Time will tell.

Lukaku-Lautaro with Thuram coming from the bench would be a great attack. Even if BBQ guy ends up staying.

we 100% offered Thuram a starting spot, which he wants, caouse otherwise he'd be in Paris by now... So i don't think Inter wants Lukaku now, as much as Lukaku wants Inter.

Paris didn't really make an offer after all. It was between us and Milan.

Milan will be soooo pissed they will go all in for Lukaku and Frattesi.

Fratessi still wants us though.
