Inter Milan have emerged as the leading Italian contender in the pursuit of Juma Bah, the promising 18-year-old central defender currently playing for Real Valladolid. However, the Nerazzurri face stiff competition from Premier League giants Manchester City in this high-stakes transfer battle.
Gianluca Di Marzio details how the potential deal for Bah is complicated by Inter’s lack of non-EU player slots. To circumvent this issue, the club is exploring a collaborative approach with Monza, who have an available slot for non-EU players. This strategic partnership could pave the way for Inter to secure the talented Sierra Leonean defender.
Despite Inter’s interest, Manchester City appear to be in pole position to sign Bah. The English club have been pushing hard to add the young centre-back to their roster, making the negotiations increasingly challenging for Inter Milan.
Bah has impressed this season, making 13 appearances across La Liga and cup competitions for Valladolid. His performances have caught the eye of several top European clubs, sparking this intense transfer tussle.
