Inter Milan have as reignited its pursuit of Albert Gudmundsson, seeking to add the Icelandic forward to their squad. After a period of inactivity, Inter have approached Genoa for information on Gudmundsson, who has been a top target for coach Simone Inzaghi. Inzaghi sees Gudmundsson as a player who can bring a unique dimension to the team’s attack, especially following Alexis Sanchez’s departure to Udinese.
According to Calciomercato, the potential deal has gained traction as Genoa’s coach, Alberto Gilardino, has shown interest in including Marko Arnautovic in the negotiations, with a preference for the Austrian over Joaquin Correa. This unexpected development has opened up possibilities for a swap deal, despite Fiorentina’s advanced talks with Gudmundsson.
Inter and Genoa have initiated contact to explore the feasibility of the transfer. However, with Fiorentina already having made significant progress, time is of the essence. Should the clubs agree, further discussions will be needed with Arnautovic and Correa to secure their willingness to move to Genoa. While challenging, Inter is making a final push to secure Gudmundsson’s services.
