Inter Milan Devise Strategy To Secure Highly Rated Italy & Liverpool Starlet

Inter Milan are plotting a summer move for Liverpool and Italy defender Giovanni Leoni, with the Nerazzurri devising a broader recruitment strategy designed to bring fresh, high-quality additions to the squad without compromising financial sustainability.

According to SportMediaset, the early Champions League exit has accelerated Inter’s planning for the 2026/27 season.

Marotta and Ausilio are working on a player trading model.

Expiring contracts and the expected sale of Davide Frattesi will free up the funds needed to bring in new faces.

Leoni is high on the list.

The young Italian defender is currently at Liverpool but the Nerazzurri see a move to Milan as the ideal environment for him to rebuild after a recent injury.

Inter’s growing relationship with Liverpool could prove key in getting a deal done.

The same connection opens the door to Curtis Jones.

The Englishman’s price tag drops significantly as he enters the final year of his contract at Anfield.

Jones remains a priority target and a player Cristian Chivu admires greatly.

The strategy is clear, sell smartly, buy cleverly, and use existing relationships to stay ahead of the competition.
