The eyes of the Premier on Bastoni


In this crazy market then many look to the jewels of the Nerazzurri defense. Skriniar and Bastoni attract the attention of many clubs . On the Italian there are Manchester United and Tottenham who, however, are working on Pau Torres of Villareal in a deal that also includes Lo Celso. Even the Red Devils look to the Spaniard in a total duel with Bastoni. As for Skriniar, the tests he underwent after the injury in the national team confirmed the muscular problem and excluded the involvement of the knee. On Skriniar many move and the ghost of Paris Saint Germain hovers. Inter watch and wait. Work on multiple tables between sales and purchases. And never before has the opportunity to get his hands on the old king of Milan: Romelu Lukaku.

Torres is obviously our 2nd choice behind Bastoni and to be honest I would be a bit flat if we get Torres and not Bastoni.

However, plenty of time left to see what happens.

I prefer Bastoni. Or Gvardiol. But Torres,as back up to Davies, is acceptable.

Since this is from Sky Italia, I think Paratici has leaked it after United we’re sniffing around Bastoni. Way to coincidental

If Bastoni ends up being off the table as feared this would be an interesting one. You'd hope we could inflate Gio's value a bit in the part exchange too.

He's a decent fit for the LCB position and I'd back Conte to get a lot out of him. Bastoni is obviously preferable but I'd certainly be interested in Torres. He's been a key part of a very competitive Villarreal team.

If true he’s valued at €50m, then GLC + €25m could be a decent deal. Have seen some say he can play CCB which then we could still have a decent budget for LCB say £40m or so.

unlikely scenario but you never know

I'd have been overjoyed with Torres in the past, I think the idea of being gutted about it now because of Bastoni is a great moment to reflect just how well we've turned shit around.

I guess the one positive is we're able to move Lo Celso on to give us another £25m or so to spend elsewhere.

This will be such a disappointing outcome after all the Bastoni hype but its also the one that is the most predictable.

Always made a ton of sense and now going into motion as Bastoni probably off the table now.
Yup. And would fit Conte's demand of getting as many players in before the South Korea trip.


Could still be a negotiating ploy, but I could easily see Paratici having a deadline with Bastoni and moving on if its not going according to plan.

Near sure Ali Gold said we’re interested in two CB’s. We could be replacing Rodon/Sanchez with Torres
