Bayer Leverkusen defender Jonathan Tah has become a hot topic in the transfer market as his contract nears its end. The 27-year-old German international has confirmed he won’t be renewing with the Bundesliga club, sparking interest from several top European teams.
Calciomercato report that Inter Milan has been closely monitoring Tah’s situation for some time. The Nerazzurri are looking to bolster their defensive options, potentially as replacements for aging center-backs Francesco Acerbi and Stefan de Vrij. Tah’s potential availability on a free transfer makes him an attractive prospect for Inter, who are always on the lookout for cost-effective signings.
In a recent interview, Tah revealed an interesting personal connection to Italy that might complicate Inter’s pursuit. The defender disclosed that his wife is Italian, and her entire family supports AC Milan. This revelation adds an intriguing twist to the transfer saga, as it suggests Tah already has a familial link to Inter’s city rivals.
The upcoming Champions League match between Bayer Leverkusen and AC Milan will put Tah in the spotlight. It presents an opportunity for clubs, including Inter, to assess the defender’s performance against top-level opposition. Tah expressed excitement about facing Milan, describing it as a “family derby” of sorts.
Despite the Milan connection, Tah’s future remains uncertain. While he speaks positively about his time at Leverkusen under Xabi Alonso, a free transfer departure seems increasingly likely. Inter’s interest is clear, but they may face competition from other European giants like Bayern Munich and Barcelona.
The coming months will be crucial in determining Tah’s next move. His performance in the Champions League and the second half of the Bundesliga season could influence potential suitors
