Italian champions Inter are planning a series of squad changes during the summer transfer window. The Milan club intends to raise additional funds for its transfer budget by parting ways with certain players.
According to Corriere dello Sport, the Nerazzurri are considering selling three midfielders: Davide Frattesi, Aleksandar Stankovic, and Luis Henrique. The club aims to generate approximately 90 million euros from these transfers.
Inter won the Italian league title last season, but the club's management does not intend to stop there. Ahead of the new season, they plan to further strengthen the squad, increase competition in certain positions, and turn the team into a serious contender in Europe.
According to the source, Inter's total budget for summer transfers could be around 135–140 million euros. Part of this amount will come from the club's own resources, while the rest will be generated through player sales. In other words, the Milan club is choosing a 'sell to buy' strategy in the transfer market.
Davide Frattesi is the player most expected to leave. Inter values him at around 30 million euros. Although the Italian midfielder is talented and useful, competition within the team and the club's financial plans may pave the way for his departure.
The situation with Luis Henrique is similar. Inter is prepared to let this player go for approximately 30 million euros. In the winter, the English club Bournemouth offered such a sum, but at the time, the Milanese side did not want to part with the player. Now, the situation seems to have changed.
The case of Aleksandar Stankovic is even more interesting. Inter will fully purchase him from Club Brugge for 23 million euros. However, it is highly unlikely that the player will remain in Milan. The English club Brentford is showing interest in him.
The Milanese side aims to sell Stankovic for around 40 million euros. If this transfer goes through, Inter could see a significant financial profit from this player in a short period. This is a classic move in football business: buy low, sell high.
For Inter, this plan is logically sound. While maintaining the championship squad, the team must also make room for new players. Selling certain players can provide a fresh impetus both from a financial and sporting perspective.
In short, Inter plans to generate around 90 million euros from the transfers of Frattesi, Luis Henrique, and Stankovic this summer. The club's total transfer budget could reach 135–140 million euros. The champions are starting to reconfigure their squad — Inter does not intend to sit back in the football market.
