They got there eventually. Do keep up, Sky.

I guess because it's not about Liverpool or the Mancs they don't really care.

Seems from the ITK thread that Inter are pissing about now. Bastoni isn't pushing to leave so that makes things harder. They still have to come up with 60m from somewhere though, and Lukaku returning doesn't help them at all since they're owed a fortune for him by Chelsea anyway. Time to stoke the fires on some other deals I'd say. We've been here before too with reports of deals hitting the buffers, and 5 minutes later it's back on again. Inter are being squeezed, and I don't see them getting much for Skriniar with his contract running down. We'll just have to wait and see, but the window isn't even close to being open yet.

Inter make no sense, they need to pay 60 million but are linked with crazy targets

They're going to be seriously up shit creek if they don't bring in some major funds. The window hasn't even opened yet so I presume they think they've got plenty of time to piss about.
