Indeed, the runaway Serie A leaders will undergo a defensive overhaul in the upcoming transfer window.

With Francesco Acerbi, Matteo Darmian, and Stefan de Vrij set to leave, Beppe Marotta is on the lookout for new defenders.

Muharemovic, who has been impressive in his first Serie A season, has already caught the Inter president’s eye.

However, the San Siro giants may have to beat Juventus to the 22-year-old’s signature.

Meanwhile, Inter are also keeping close tabs on another Sassuolo star.

Canadian midfielder Ismael Kone has drawn Marotta’s interest, with the Nerazzurri looking to strengthen this department in the summer.

“The season is in full swing, but the club is already working on the transfer market,” Carnevali stated. “We will sell a few players. Even now, we can already have an idea of who might leave.

“But it also depends on our asking price and how much the club interested in buying them is willing to offer.

“We’re already assessing and looking for players who could fill those positions where we might have needs.

“Every club works with a bit of planning, especially when there are sporting results that allow you to do so.”

Then, he informed Inter of Sassuolo’s asking price for Kone.

“For Kone, €30 million could be enough, but it also depends on who comes knocking,” Carnevali stated.

The 23-year-old could be a decent option for the Nerazzurri if they fail to sign Roma talisman Manu Kone.
