Report – Inter Milan Rekindle Interest In Fiorentina Stalwart To Address Wingback Emergency

Inter Milan could reportedly reignite their interest in Fiorentina defender Dodo amid an ongoing pursuit of Denzel Dumfries’ heir.

According to Sportitalia via FCInter1908, the Nerazzurri are keeping close tabs on the Brazilian right-back.

Cristian Chivu lacks dependable wingback options after losing Dutch superstar Dumfries to a long-term injury.

Indeed, Luis Henrique has failed to live up to expectations, while Matteo Darmian continues to struggle with fitness.

Therefore, finding a successor to Dumfries has emerged as the San Siro giants’ main objective for the January transfer window.

Highly-rated Atalanta loanee Marco Palestra remains Inter’s dream signing.

However, the 20-year-old Italian won’t come cheap, with La Dea valuing their in-demand starlet at €40 million.

Since Inter cannot afford such a hefty price, they’ve expanded their search.

Rafik Belghali has caught Inter’s eye, but the Hellas Verona defender cannot sign for another club until the summer.
