Alessandro Bastoni is reportedly not convinced about leaving Inter for Barcelona this summer, despite growing transfer noise in Italy and Spain. The defender’s focus remains on Inter’s title push rather than forcing a move to La Liga. Barcelona have made contact with people close to Bastoni, but he has not given any clear signal that he wants to leave San Siro. Current reporting instead points to Bastoni prioritising the Scudetto race and staying committed to Inter’s project.

Inter are again being linked with Andrey Santos as part of a wider summer rebuild that could reshape their midfield and slightly alter their long-used tactical structure. The Chelsea midfielder remains highly appreciated in Milan even after previous talks failed to produce a deal. Reports say Inter have held multiple meetings in the past with intermediaries close to Santos, but Chelsea previously blocked an exit because they viewed him as part of the first-team picture. The renewed interest fits Inter’s plan to add more physicality in midfield and greater unpredictability further forward.

Milan missed a major chance to revive their title challenge after losing 1-0 to Lazio, leaving them further adrift of Inter. The defeat was described as deeply disappointing and has increased pressure on the Rossoneri to protect their Champions League place instead. Gustav Isaksen scored in the 26th minute to decide the match, while Milan failed to build on recent wins over Cremonese and Inter.

The Armenian’s condition will be assessed further, adding to frustration from a night that already carried tension and post-match controversy.

His setback continues a difficult spell after recent criticism and leaves Inter waiting for medical clarity.

Inter have no intention of selling Pio Esposito despite growing Premier League interest, with Newcastle reportedly ready to make a serious move. The young striker is now considered a central part of Inter’s long-term attacking plans and is being treated as untouchable. Fabrizio Romano said Newcastle are one of the clubs prepared to push financially for a new striker this summer, while Arsenal have only monitored the player without concrete action.

Inter
March 2026

Inter are preparing for a major midfield rebuild in summer 2026, with uncertainty growing around Hakan Calhanoglu, Davide Frattesi and Henrikh Mkhitaryan. Calhanoglu could leave without a new deal, while Frattesi is increasingly expected to depart after long-running frustration over limited minutes. Inter are already assessing options despite focusing on the title race, with Calhanoglu’s contract situation becoming a key issue before the market opens. Frattesi is now expected to receive permission to leave for at least £30 million, while changing internal sentiment has also placed Mkhitaryan’s future under closer scrutiny.

Following Inter’s shock Champions League elimination by Bodo/Glimt, Barella said a prior refereeing decision was the real turning point that put Inter into the play-off round. He pointed to a late December penalty for Liverpool, scored by Szoboszlai, arguing the dropped point cost Inter a top-eight league-phase finish and forced a risky knockout route that ended in the upset.

Alessandro Bastoni
February 2026

Inter defender Alessandro Bastoni apologised for celebrating Pierre Kalulu’s red card and said he has received death threats after replays showed him going down deceptively in the incident that led to the second booking. Kalulu was dismissed for a second yellow after Bastoni fell in anticipation of contact. The controversy intensified because Bastoni celebrated the decision and the moment became a wider flashpoint about refereeing standards.

Musah’s Inter test could redefine his status at Atalanta

Yunus Musah
December 2025

Musah has finally earned a full 90 minutes for Atalanta, taking advantage of injuries and AFCON absences, and now faces a crucial test of trust as his club weigh whether to start him again against league leaders Inter in a demanding midfield battle. Inter’s control through experienced midfielders Nicolò Barella and Piotr Zieliński will severely stress Atalanta’s structure, and another start for Musah would signal growing confidence from Gian Piero Gasperini, while benching him again would underline how fragile his standing remains after a difficult year.
