Report – Inter Milan Struggle To Offload Poland & Albania Stars This Summer
This according to today's print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews.
Inter Milan are thinking about a shakeup in midfield, according to Tuttosport.
The aim would be to bring in a player suitable for the central positions in the 3-4-2-1 formation that coach Cristian Chivu is aiming to transition the team to playing.
Therefore, the Nerazzurri want a physical, dynamic player with strong tackling and ball-winning ability. A midfielder who can cover extra ground behind the attack.
Inter Struggle To Offload Piotr Zielinski & Kristjan Asllani

Two players who would have little place in Inter's new-look midfield are Piotr Zielinski and Kristjan Asllani.
Both of the two midfielders offer plenty in possession.
However, where there are doubts is in the pair's physicality and presence off the ball.
Therefore, Inter are reportedly looking to part ways with Zielinski and Asllani and sign a different profile of midfielder.
Doing so won't be easy though. While Zielinski's quality is hardly in doubt, the 31-year-old's age and wages makes finding a buyer tricky.
Meanwhile, Kristjan Asllani has rejected a move to Real Betis this summer. Inter will therefore have to find a solution that the Albanian is happy with.

Aston Villa-Roma 3-0 - IN PROGRESS Roma, after many matches of varying levels, faces a direct rival in the upcoming Europa League: Emery's Aston Villa. The English side, in better shape, overwhelmed the Giallorossi in the first half, which ended 3-0. For Gasp, a draft of the starting lineup with Hermoso confirmed, Al Ayanoui-Koné in the middle, and Dovbyk up front. However, in the first 45 minutes, it was an English monologue with goals from Buendia, Ramsey, and Watkins. Buendia's goal was a gem from a free kick that Svilar could do nothing about. Overall, Roma did little, if anything, in a first half dominated by the Betis-Como 0-2 - IN PROGRESS Yet another tough test for Como, who, in the first 45 minutes, also outplayed last season's Conference League finalist. First Diao, then Da Cunha: Fabregas' Lariani overwhelmed the Spaniards in the first 2-1 Excellent test for Juric's Atalanta, showing strong progress in this outing against Monza despite falling behind to a goal from Birindelli.

Sky: Newcastle agree personal terms with Milan defender Thiaw
Newcastle United have agreed personal terms with Milan defender Malick Thiaw, amid rumours the German centre-back could be leaving the Rossoneri this summer. According to what has been reported by Sky journalist Patrick Berger on X, Newcastle have agreed terms on a four-year-deal with the former Schalke man, whilst Bayer Leverkusen also remain keen on the defender. MADRID, SPAIN – NOVEMBER 05: Malick Thiaw of AC Milan controls the ball during the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 League Phase MD4 match between Real Madrid C.F. and AC Milan at Estadio Santiago Bernabeu on November 05, 2024 in Madrid, Spain. (Photo by) However, Berger suggests Milan head coach Massimiliano Allegri does not want the player to leave this summer, as he sees a potential future for the German in a 3-man defence. What next for Thiaw amid Newcastle interest? At the start of the summer, it looked apparent that Thiaw was on the transfer list for Milan. However, Allegri has reportedly been convinced by the 23-year-old in pre-season so far and having additional options at centre-back may be vital for the way the former Juventus coach wishes to run things in Lombardy. MILAN, ITALY – FEBRUARY 18: Zepiqueno Redmond of Feyenoord is challenged by Malick Thiaw of AC Milan during the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 League Knockout Play-off second leg match between AC Milan and Feyenoord at San Siro Stadium on February 18, 2025 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by) Newcastle reportedly made a €30 million offer for Thiaw and talks between the two clubs continue but the Rossoneri are in a position to demand a large fee for the defender.

Report – Inter Milan Receive Double Injury Boost As Poland & Belgium Stars Resume Full Training
Piotr Zielinski and Yann Bisseck have reportedly joined the Inter Milan pre-season training camp after recovering from injuries. According to Sky Sport via FCInterNews, both players have resumed full training. Recurring injuries and a lack of match fitness plagued the Polish midfielder's first season at San Siro. Furthermore, he was out of the Inter squad for the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup with a calf injury. However, he is finally back in training. Bisseck & Zielinski Hand Inter Milan Double Fitness Boost MILAN, ITALY – NOVEMBER 26: Piotr Zielinski of FC Internazionale looks on during the warm up prior to the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 League Phase MD5 match between FC Internazionale Milano and RB Leipzig at Stadio San Siro on November 26, 2024 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by) Like Zielinski, Bisseck is back from injury. Indeed, the German defender sustained a hamstring problem during the Champions League final. Therefore, new manager Cristian Chivu couldn't count on him for the Club World Cup. But he has regained full fitness ahead of Inter's opening pre-season friendly against French giants Monaco. Meanwhile, the San Siro giants are contemplating selling the 24-year-old to the highest bidder. By contrast, they have renewed trust in Davide Frattesi. Indeed, the Italian midfielder fits Chivu's new formation perfectly. However, he won't be back until the start of the 2025/26 season.
