Report – Inter Milan Plot Double Swoop To Reinforce Attack & Evaluate Various Scenarios For In-Demand Prodigy
Report – Inter Milan Plot Double Swoop To Reinforce Attack & Evaluate Various Scenarios For In-Demand Prodigy Ange-Yoan Bonny and Rasmus Hojlund rank highly on Inter Milan's list of priorities, and so does the future of Francesco Pio Esposito. Italian journalist Luca Marchetti took stock of Inter's transfer plans via FCInter1908, including the situation of the young gun. Advertisement Widely considered among Italy's finest talents, Francesco Pio Esposito is part of Inter's Club World Cup squad. It could be a presentable opportunity for the 19-year-old to prove himself on the grand stage. However, there's still a veil of mystery surrounding his future. Indeed, the Serie A runners-up remain committed to adding two attacking pieces to Cristian Chivu's attacking jigsaw. Therefore, they must re-evaluate the youngster's first-team prospects heading into a transitional summer. Inter Milan Keen on Ange-Yoan Bonny & Rasmus Hojlund But Unwilling to Lose Francesco Pio Esposito PARMA, ITALY – SEPTEMBER 16: Ange-Yoan Bonny of Parma Calcio celebrates after scoring his team second goal during the Serie A match between Parma and Udinese at Stadio Ennio Tardini on September 16, 2024 in Parma, Italy. (Photo by) Esposito would likely be a decent option in rotation, but that could be counterproductive for his development. Advertisement As such, Chivu must examine all the factors before deciding what to do with one of the most in-demand Italian prospects. On the other hand, Inter seem to be tightening the noose on Parma's Ange-Yoan Bonny. With the player's consent in the bag, all that is left is an agreement with the Crusaders. Despite Parma's €25 million asking price, the deal looks inevitable. Things may not be as simple in Hojlund's case. Valued at €45m by Manchester United, the Dane has flopped in the Premier League. Therefore, he'd probably favor a return to Serie A, yet Inter can only sign him on loan with a mandatory buyout clause. Finally, there's the Mehdi Taremi conundrum. Indeed, the Iranian star wants to stay, but the Nerazzurri will listen to offers for their underperforming striker.

Iran Superstar Plays Down Exit Speculation: 'I Have A Contract With Inter'
Iran Superstar Plays Down Exit Speculation: 'I Have A Contract With Inter' Iran international Mehdi Taremi addressed his future at Inter Milan after today's 3-0 win over North Korea. Speaking to the press after the game via FCInter1908, Taremi confirmed he has no intention of leaving San Siro. Advertisement Mehdi Taremi signed a multi-year contract last summer after leaving Porto as a free agent. Indeed, despite receiving offers from across the continent, he chose the Nerazzurri colors. However, his first season in Serie A didn't go as expected. Forced to play second fiddle to Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram, he only made seven league starts. Moreover, the 32-year-old scored an unenviable three goals across 43 appearances in all competitions. For further context, his only goal in Serie A came from the penalty spot. Therefore, rumors surrounding his future have quickly gained momentum at the end of the season. Advertisement Yet, Taremi has no doubt and wants to stay Inter. Mehdi Taremi Addresses His Inter Milan Future RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA – JANUARY 06: Mehdi Taremi of FC Internazionale celebrates scoring his team's second goal during the Italian Super Cup Final between FC Internazionale and AC Milan at Kingdom Arena on January 06, 2025 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. (Photo by) Despite his club struggles, Taremi continues to be Iran's standout performer. His national team secured the 2026 World Cup qualification as Group A winners. Furthermore, he registered a goal and an assist as Iran trounced North Korea 3-0 in their final qualifying fixture. After the game, he spoke to the press, offering an update on his future at Giuseppe Meazza. 'I have a contract with Inter, and if they allow me, I will stay with this team,' he admitted. Though it wasn't a memorable season for Taremi and Inter, overall, there's still a place for him in this team. Advertisement Indeed, Joaquin Correa already left the club to join Brazilian outfit Botafogo on a two-year deal. Meanwhile, Marko Arnautovic will soon sever ties with the Nerazzurri as the club refused to offer him fresh terms. However, Inter may sign two new strikers in the summer, with Ange-Yoan Bonny and Rasmus Hojlund topping their wishlist.

Italian Journalist Deems VAR Intervention In Inter Milan 2-2 Lazio Serie A Draw 'Embarrassing'
Italian journalist Maurizio Pistocchi took stock of a controversial VAR call in last weekend's 2-2 draw between Inter Milan and Lazio. Pistocchi took to Twitter via FCInter1908 to deliver his assessment of the decision to award the Biancocelesti a dubious penalty. Advertisement Marco Baroni's side held Inter winless in an ill-tempered affair on Sunday night. Indeed, Lazio fought back twice to deny the Nerazzurri perhaps one last chance to overtake Napoli at the top of Serie A. However, referee Daniele Chiffi played a huge part in Lazio's late comeback. First, he neglected Boulaye Dia's offside position in the build-up to Pedro's 72nd-minute equalizer. Then, he handed the visiting team a questionable penalty in second-half stoppages. At first, he refused to penalize Yann Bisseck's handball inside the box. But, after consulting with VAR, he changed his decision. Pedro made no mistake from the spot to make it 2-2. Maurizio Pistocchi Offers His Verdict on Controversial VAR Decisions in Inter Milan vs Lazio Serie A Draw FLORENCE, ITALY – NOVEMBER 5: referee Daniele Chiffi looks on during the Serie A TIM match between ACF Fiorentina and Juventus at Stadio Artemio Franchi on November 5, 2023 in Florence, Italy. (Photo by) Chiffi's calls have steered plenty of controversy, prompting furious reactions from the Nerazzurri camp. Advertisement Indeed, Simone Inzaghi couldn't hold his nerve and earned a red card toward the end of the game. Now, Pistocchi deemed Chiffi's decisions 'embarrassing.' Furthermore, he accused VAR of showing the main referee 'wrong' footage. 'Embarrassing,' he wrote. 'That's how the handling of the footage for the incident that decided Inter-Lazio by VAR official Di Paolo can be described.' As a result of Chiffi's poor game handling, Inter will take on Como without Inzaghi. Unfortunately, the 49-year-old manager must serve a touchline ban for his late-game tantrum. However, the club chiefs have backed their manager despite his outburst, as controversy became intolerable. Unfavorable calls have significantly derailed Inter's title chances this season, leaving everyone at San Siro fuming. Yet, anything could happen on the final day.

Di Canio Blasts Penalty Decision In Inter Milan 2-2 Lazio Serie A Thriller: ‘It's A Foul 10/10 Times In Midfield' – Adds ‘Lazio Penalty Is Stonewall'
Di Canio Blasts Penalty Decision In Inter Milan 2-2 Lazio Serie A Thriller: 'It's A Foul 10/10 Times In Midfield' – Adds 'Lazio Penalty Is Stonewall' Paolo Di Canio feels that a Nicolo Rovella shove on Yann Bisseck in Inter Milan's 2-2 Serie A draw with Lazio should've been a penalty. The former striker gave his thoughts on Sky Sport Italia, via FCInter1908. He argued that it was a foul 'ten times out of ten' in midfield, and also said that the Lazio penalty was 'stonewall.' Advertisement Inter Milan's Serie A clash with Lazio this evening was filled with drama. And among this was plenty of refereeing controversy. Both of Lazio's goals came after a VAR check. The first was initially disallowed for an offside in the buildup before the video showed that it was in fact offside. Meanwhile, Inter conceded a penalty very late on for a Yann Bisseck handball. However, referee Daniele Chiffi did not spot the infringement in real time, needing a second luck after consulting with VAR. Di Canio: 'Rovella Shove On Bisseck A Penalty 10/10 Times' In Inter 2-2 Lazio LONDON, ENGLAND – AUGUST 31: Sunderland manager Paolo Di Canio looks on during the Barclays Premier League match between Crystal Palace and Sunderland at Selhurst Park on August 31, 2013 in London, England. (Photo by) Meanwhile, there were a couple big moments inside the Lazio penalty area. Advertisement Firstly, there was a moment in the first half when Biancocelesti midfielder Nicolo Rovella looked to have shoved over Inter defender Yann Bisseck as he was charging into the area. Bisseck furiously appealed for a penalty. However, referee Chiffi waved the appeals away. And VAR did not intervene. Meanwhile, Inter also briefly thought that they'd scored the most dramatic of late winners. However, a VAR check confirmed that Marko Arnautovic was in an offside position. Of the first half incident, former striker Paolo Di Canio commented that 'Rovella's push on Bisseck in midfield is a free kick.' 'So why is it not a penalty when it's in the area? I ask myself.' Advertisement 'If it's a foul, it's a foul,' Di Canio argued. 'In midfield, ten referees out of ten would give that as a foul.' Then, Paolo Di Canio argued that 'the penalty for Lazio is stonewall, as clear as it gets.' 'He makes himself bigger with his arm,' the former striker argued. 'It's Bisseck's attitude that's wrong. You have to know how to act in terms of defensive tactics, that arm can't be there. Why does Bisseck make that jump?'
