Market Inter, the clues for January are joined: all roads lead to … | Market

Inter is looking for a deputy Lukaku to find in the January market and today's edition of Gazzetta dello Sport strong point on the name of Olivier Giroud, expiring contract with Chelsea and already trained by Antonio Conte in the past. "Crossing clues, characteristics and words, it seems impossible to go wrong. There is a very strong candidate for Inter's attack for January and all roads lead to Olivier Giroud, on expiry of contract with Chelsea and now on the margins of the Lampard project: just 211 minutes played in the season and if we eliminate the 74 – with lots of goals – of the European Super Cup played and lost against Liverpool last August 14, the minutes of Giroud stop at 137, which is just over two hours between Premier (4 appearances for 120 minutes) and Champions (one race and 17 'played). An awkward situation for an attacker who graduated world champion just 16 months ago in Russia and is aiming to be part of the French expedition for the European 2020. Tonight against Moldova he will be the owner, but to stay long it is inevitable the goodbye to Chelsea ”.

CONTACT HAPPENED – Always according to the Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter and the player's entourage have already started talking a few weeks ago. This is what the "Rosea" writes: "Here it is then the opportunity so much cited in the last weeks by the a.d. Nerazzurri Beppe Marotta. Giroud has everything it takes to satisfy Conte: international experience, a sense of goal, an accessible card and the physical and technical characteristics of a perfect deputy Lukaku. He has also been trained by the Salento coach in the last six months at Chelsea. These clues would be enough to make Giroud the number one target for the Nerazzurri attack. And instead there is more: a contact, which took place in recent weeks, between the agents of Giroud and Inter, with absolute approval of the Nerazzurri destination ”.
