Report – Inter Milan Line Up Genoa Star As Alternative Target To Atalanta Midfielder
Report – Inter Milan Line Up Genoa Star As Alternative Target To Atalanta Midfielder Inter Milan have lined up Genoa midfielder Morten Frendrup as an alternative target to Atalanta's Ederson this summer. This according to today's print edition of Milan-based newspaper Il Messaggero, via FCInter1908. Advertisement Inter Milan's interest in Ederson is clear. The Brazilian is reportedly the Nerazzurri's top target to replace Hakan Calhanoglu in the event that the 31-year-old leaves this summer. However, it is far from clear that Inter will be able to afford a move for Ederson. Reportedly, Atalanta want a fee of at least €60 million for the 25-year-old. That would require Inter to make significant sales in order to finance a deal.

Advertisement The Dane has enjoyed a couple of outstanding seasons in Serie A. This after helping the Grifone to win promotion back to the top flight in the 2022-23 campaign. According to Il Messaggero, Inter see Frendrup as a potential reinforcement in midfield. The 24-year-old would certainly cost less than Atalanta's Ederson would.

Genoa Without Three Key Players For Serie A Clash Vs Inter Milan – Patrick Vieira Considers Formation Change
Genoa midfielder Milan Badelj and Morten Thorsby, and forward Vitinha, will miss today's Serie A clash with Inter Milan through injury. This according to today's print edition of Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that Grifone coach Patrick Vieira is considering using a 4-2-3-1 formation. Genoa take on Inter Milan in Serie A this evening. For Inter, the motivation is certainly there. The Nerazzurri will feel that three points are obligatory after losses to Fiorentina and Juventus and a draw with AC Milan in February. Meanwhile, the Grifone currently have a solid foothold in the Serie A midtable. However, Genoa will hardly feel that they are out of relegation peril just yet. And on the other hand, they could even dream of a European place. Genoa coach Patrick Vieira will be without a few key players for today's match. There are two absences in midfield. Holding midfielder Milan Badelj will have to sit this evening, as will former Sampdoria box-to-box midfielder Morten Thorsby. Meanwhile, former Marseille forward Vitinha will also be on the sidelines. The Gazzetta anticipate that Vieira could use a 4-2-3-1 formation to make up for the absences in midfield. That would see Patrizio Masini partner Morten Frendrup in the engine room. Then, there would be Junior Messias playing in the Number Ten slot behind former Inter and Sassuolo striker Andrea Pinamonti. On the wing, meanwhile, the Gazzetta anticipate that former Lyon, Burnley, and West Ham United winger Maxwell Cornet could get the start.
