Inter Milan Eyeing Striker Upgrade: Arnautovic Potential Departure Triggers Transfer Rumors
Italian football giants Inter Milan are actively seeking to enhance their striking options, with reports indicating a potential departure for their current striker, Marko Arnautovic, sparking a flurry of transfer rumors.
According to Italian outlet Tuttosport, the management at Inter Milan is diligently working to revamp their attacking department for the upcoming season, with the club’s top choices currently being captain Lautaro Martinez and Marcus Thuram.
Furthermore, the Nerazzurri have reportedly secured an agreement with Mehdi Taremi, who is set to join them as a free agent from Porto once his contract expires in June.
On the other hand, it’s speculated that another forward, Marko Arnautovic, may be on his way out as his contract approaches its end.
The 34-year-old Austrian striker, currently on loan from Bologna, has not entirely convinced Inter Milan’s management this season, with concerns raised over his injury proneness and lack of accuracy in front of goal.
As a potential replacement, the Italian club has their eyes on 19-year-old talent Valentin Carboni, who has been showcasing promising skills while on loan at Monza.
With room for improvement in the attacking lineup, Inter Milan could be on the lookout for alternatives, even considering letting go of Arnautovic, who is set to be signed permanently at the end of the season.
According to the sources, Inter Milan is potentially exploring the option of offloading Arnautovic to the Saudi Pro League in a bid to bring in a younger, fresher talent that can contribute more effectively to the team.
Noting the recent trend of Saudi clubs attracting seasoned European players, predominantly aging stars, the move could serve both parties well, allowing Inter Milan to regroup their attacking front with a more dynamic forward.
In the current campaign, Arnautovic has tallied four goals and three assists in 29 appearances across various competitions, and his potential departure could herald a new era in Inter Milan’s striking department.
