Marotta: โ€˜Lukaku? what a disappointment! Pavard should come, Alexis Sanchezโ€ฆ

The CEO of Inter spoke to โ€˜Radio Tv Serie Aโ€™ about the ongoing Nerazzurri transfer market: โ€œWe are in a good position for Pavard. Correa wants playing time, Sanchez is sending signals to come back, which is positive. Regarding Lukaku: โ€œA profound disappointment.

Is the announcement of Pavard ready today?

No, not today, but our position is strong. Giuseppe Marotta, Interโ€™s CEO, addressed various market-related topics during an interview with Radio Tv Serie A, emphasizing the clubโ€™s ambitious goals.

โ€œWe aim high in our objectives. We want strong individuals, a mix of youth and experience to strike the right balance.โ€

Marotta also hinted at the potential return of Alexis Sanchez, who is currently a free agent following his last stint with Marseille. He also discussed the possibility of Correaโ€™s departure, saying,

โ€œCorrea is seeking more playing time, and we are attentive to his requests. We will try to accommodate him if he wishes to leave. Itโ€™s pleasing that Sanchez wants to return. He is a true champion with a profound passion for his profession. He left reluctantly, but now he has signaled his desire to come back; that is indeed true.โ€

โ€œLukaku in Italy?

The Lukaku topic couldnโ€™t be avoided: โ€œIt was a very deep personal disappointment. I donโ€™t know what he will do now, and Iโ€™m not interested. Where will he go? Now, the options are starting to narrow. In Italy? I donโ€™t think so anymore; there are only 10 days left, but I donโ€™t know what will happen.โ€

About Onana and the Arab market?

There were many other topics covered, including his thoughts on the sale of Onana to United: โ€œHis transfer to United was absolutely positive; from an economic standpoint, we couldnโ€™t compete.โ€

He also touched upon the developments in the Arab market: โ€œI have to say we werenโ€™t prepared. In terms of quality, the spectacle in Europe has now decreased; they have acquired twenty-two important players. This isnโ€™t the Chinese phenomenon.

We have also received and continue to receive proposals. I donโ€™t rule out receiving requests for other players, but now, with the market nearing its end, itโ€™s impossible to transfer those who hold a certain weight in the team.โ€
