After securing the domestic double, Inter’s next big goal is to become a competitive force in Europe and recover from their playoff defeat to Bodo/Glimt. What lies ahead for Inter? This is the question that is currently circulating within the club. How will the transfer market for the "Nerazzurri" shape up? How will their strategy evolve to once again aim for the stars?
Following the domestic double — the combination of the Cup and the league title that was missing since Mourinho's era — the management will start planning for the upcoming season. Several departures are anticipated, including Achérbi, Darmian, Mkhitaryan, and Frattesi, along with various targets. "Gazzetta dello Sport" attempts to outline the potential future investments, following Marotta’s directions: “Young Italians and experienced foreigners.”
The goalkeeper position needs to be addressed. Jan Šemer, whose contract expires in June, will be replaced after three years of both joy and difficulties. He leaves with two titles as the starting goalkeeper, and it is unlikely he will stay as a backup. The knot is tied with Martínez, who is aiming to secure the starting position for next season. Throughout the year, Inter has been scouting several goalkeepers, primarily Guglielmo Vicario, with whom they have a principle agreement, and also Andriy Lunin and the goalkeeper from Napoli.
Inter's European resurgence is long overdue. They've got the firepower and the ambition to make a real impact in the Champions League. But can they stay competitive in the league while also aiming high in Europe? Time will tell. Let’s see if they can truly reclaim their place among the elite.
