Milan must seriously watch their backs from Inter's attempt to bring the “Rossonero” to the Nerazzurri. Here's what's happening.
Milan continues to carefully monitor the transfer market, with the management busy planning the next moves for both the January transfer window and the summer. In particular, the Rossoneri team is trying to strengthen the squad in view of the next matches, but must also pay attention to the fierce competition from other teams, in particular Beppe Marotta's Inter.
The challenge on the transfer market between the two Milanese teams is always heated, and Marotta has already demonstrated his ability to be particularly astute and competitive. Milan will therefore have to be very careful not to be surprised, defending their objectives and trying to anticipate Inter's moves, both to avoid unwanted transfers and to strengthen themselves in the best possible way.
Is Marotta preparing the prank?
In fact, the Nerazzurri manager seems intent on making a new attempt to “mock” Milan by trying to sign the “Rossonero”. A move that could significantly complicate the plans of Milan who, precisely on the player, seemed to want to start an important and long-term project.
Inter's move to mock Milan
The rivalry between Milan and Inter could thus add a new chapter to the already long list of rudeness and left-handed jokes. Marotta's latest move is destined to hit Milan in the heart we could say. From what transpires, in fact, the Nerazzurri number one could really consider the option of targeting Gabriele Zappa, who has spent the last few seasons consolidating his presence as an anchor in Cagliari's formation, exhibiting notable maturity and demonstrating that he is perfectly suited to comfortable in both a four-man and five-man defence. He is known for his speed, positional sense and impressive aerial ability, qualities that make him a complete and reliable defender. It is no surprise that his performances have attracted the attention of major clubs. Affirming his esteem for Milan since childhood, Zappa becomes a potential candidate to strengthen the Rossoneri defense but something could go wrong. Inter – writes Calciomercato.it – with whom Zappa has already shared successes at youth level, is observing him with interest, evaluating the opportunity to reinstate him as a possible defensive wildcard, in the international scenario the attention of Paris Saint-Germain stands out. The French club, looking for a valid deputy for Achraf Hakimi, considers Zappa as a strategic choice, an indication of his positive evaluation even beyond national borders.
A recognized talent
Zappa's career, formed and raised at Inter and now fully blossomed at Cagliari, shows an ascending path that is unlikely to go unnoticed in the next transfer market. The discussions on his future are animated by a contract renewal with the Sardinian club currently under negotiation, which does not, however, seem to preclude different future scenarios, given the growing interest of prestigious clubs. The situation remains fluid and open to various possibilities, confirming Zappa as one of the names to follow with greatest interest in the current football panorama.
