After winning the Brazilian Flying Wing Enrique for 25 million euros, Serie A giant Inter Milan, which has spent 41 million euros in this year's transfer market (as early as February, they used 16 million euros to lock in Croatia's 21-year-old talented midfielder Susic), seems to have not stopped their pace. They are trying to sign two more players before the start of the Club World Cup.

Inter Milan's idea is not surprising. Although this Club World Cup is held for the first time, the prize money is rich, especially the bonus distribution method linked to the strong record, which determines that all clubs will strive to win. In the worst case, clubs from the five major leagues can get 35 million euros, but once they win the final championship, the prize money is expected to exceed 120 million euros. This is the clubs such as Inter Milan, Real Madrid, Manchester City, Bayern, and Liverpool that participated in the Club World Cup have actually caused waves in the transfer market in May. They all hope to eat their own piece on the sweet cake of Club World Cup.

Inter Milan's third pick may be decided within 1-2 weeks, and he is Parma's French striker Boni. This young player, born on October 25, 2003, has played for four seasons in Parma. Although he only scored 6 goals and assisted 4 times in the Serie A this season, his potential is widely favored and he is considered a top center seedling who is in the forefront before his career breaks out.

In terms of technical style, Boni is similar to former Inter center Lukaku. He is 189CM tall and weighs close to 90KG. He is a veritable heavy tank. However, under such a figure, Boni's speed can reach the first-class level of 34 kilometers per hour and is the same as Inter center Toulam. At the same time, his feet are delicate, and he has a certain foundation whether it is to break through the ball or support the pass, so Inter Milan takes action decisively and take it down. Inter Milan currently bids 15 million euros, while Parma asks 20 million yuan. The difference between the two sides is not big. According to the "Milan Sports Daily", this transfer is expected to be finalized within 1-2 weeks. At that time, Inter Milan will bring Boni and Esposito who return on loan to replace Arnautovic and Correa whose contracts are about to expire and play in the Club World Cup.

Inter Milan's fourth pick is Genoa's Belgian central defender De Winter. The 22-year-old young centre-back is from Juventus youth training in Serie A. He has been in the same team as Wyson, who joined Real Madrid this year and Dragusin, who currently plays for Tottenham. However, in Juventus, Derwent has always regarded him as the defender with the highest potential of three players.

As early as 2021, 18-year-old Derwent played in the Juventus first team. But because Juventus was in a turbulent period, the continuous change of coaches made Derwent have to keep renting out. It was not until the last two years that he got a stable environment to make a fortune. His technical style and characteristics are similar to Arsenal defender Saliba, and have the perfect potential of height, speed, ball-taking skills and confrontation. It is considered by the Belgian domestic media to be "another top central defender after Vermullen".

Unfortunately, Derwent, who has a net worth, is no longer willing to return to Juventus, and was eventually bought out by Genoa for 8 million euros + a second transfer share. Inter Milan is currently bidding him at 20 million euros, while Genoa is asking for 25 million euros. The gap between the two sides is also not big. Italy's Sky Sports revealed last week that Inter Milan has negotiated with Genoa, and both sides are also likely to complete the transfer in the near future. However, compared with the lack of manpower in the striker line, Inter Milan has plenty of defense personnel, so they may not be so anxious and will patiently continue to bargain with Genoa.

At present, the media previously revealed that Inter Milan's net transfer funds have exceeded 100 million euros, which should be certain. Only Enrique (25 million), Susic (16 million), Boni (20 million), Dewent (25 million), and Zalevsky (7 million), who bought out the winter break loan, have reached 93 million euros. According to the news released by the media, for this top team that has reached the Champions League final, the transfer candidates are far more than this....
