Serie A Clubs Target Major Signings as Transfer Window Heats Up

Football Transfer Rumors

In the world of football transfers, two Serie A clubs, AC Milan and Internazionale, are eyeing key reinforcements for their squads.

AC Milan’s Target: Luka Modric

AC Milan has expressed interest in veteran Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric, with discussions reportedly taking place between the club’s management. At 39, Modric is leaving the Santiago Bernabeu, where he’s enjoyed a successful tenure, including 56 appearances across all competitions last season. His next destination remains uncertain as he evaluates several offers.

Internazionale’s Offensive Reinforcement

On the other hand, Internazionale is turning its attention to Manchester United‘s forward Rasmus Højlund. Following a disappointing 5-0 defeat to Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League final, Inter is keen to bolster their attacking lineup. The 22-year-old Danish international, who struggled last season with a mere four goals in 32 Premier League appearances, has reportedly caught the interested eye of the Serie A club as they prepare for significant changes.

Additionally, Inter is also considering moves for other forwards, including Parma’s Ange-Yoan Bonny, who has been linked with Napoli.

Barcelona’s Interest in Luis Díaz

Amid these developments, Barcelona has initiated contact with Liverpool regarding winger Luis Díaz. Currently, Díaz is facing scrutiny over financial regulations as Barcelona seeks to navigate its financial Fair Play concerns. Nevertheless, the Colombian international is a top target after an impressive season at Liverpool, where he netted 13 goals and provided five assists. Competition for his signature may be stiff, with several Saudi Pro League teams also showing serious interest.

Potential Move for Marcus Rashford

Moreover, Internazionale is reportedly monitoring the situation of Marcus Rashford at Manchester United as they consider a potential bid for the England forward. After a successful loan spell at Aston Villa, the 27-year-old might be leaving Old Trafford, with Inter and Barcelona both believed to be interested. The Red Devils may entertain offers around £40 million for Rashford, further complicating the transfer landscape.

AC Milan’s Transfer News

Lastly, Foot Mercato reports that AC Milan is closing in on an agreement with Al Hilal for left-back Theo Hernández. The 27-year-old is expected to make a €30 million move to the Saudi club, but negotiations regarding personal terms are ongoing, particularly in regards to enhancing his salary offer from €15 million to €20 million per year.

These ongoing discussions exemplify the dynamic nature of this summer’s transfer window, as clubs scramble to fortify their rosters ahead of the upcoming season.
