With Kone out of reach, Inter could try to sign Cisse from Rennes.
Indeed, the young Frenchman is a perfect prototype of a modern-day midfielder.
In addition to his decent technical and playmaking skills, he's equally well-versed in recovering possession.
Furthermore, his versatility allows him to cover a multitude of positions in the engine room.
Cisse made only 14 Ligue 1 appearances last season. However, he has established himself as a regular starter at France's U23 team.
In doing so, he has become one of Europe's most sought-after prospects, with 'half of the continent' pursuing his signature.

Villarreal agree personal terms with Chelsea star
La Liga outfit Villarreal have reached an agreement on the personal terms of a contract with a member of the defensive ranks at Premier League giants Chelsea. That's according to transfer insider Fabrizio Romano, who points towards Renato Veiga as the player in question. Defender Veiga is for his part expected to be on the move before the summer transfer window is out. This comes with the Portuguese, fresh off a solid loan stint with Juventus over the 2nd half of last season, not featuring in the plans of Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca. Held in high regard across the continent, a number of bids, in turn, are understood to have been tabled for Veiga of late. And as alluded to above, this week, one of the 22-year-old's many suitors have found an agreement with the player himself. As per a report from journalist Fabrizio Romano: 'Villarreal have agreed personal terms with Renato Veiga! Talks are well underway with Chelsea. The Spanish club is negotiating to agree on terms also with Chelsea. Current proposal: €24m plus add-ons, trying to get closer to €30m package.' Conor Laird – GSFN

Serie A giants Milan can close their move for Bayer Leverkusen striker Victor Boniface as early as tomorrow. The Rossoneri made a move for the player earlier today, after having been linked with a host of strikers in the last two weeks. MilanNews report that work is ongoing at Milan to close a deal for Boniface quickly and talks have now advanced quickly with Bayer Leverkusen. Some steps are remaining to finalise the deal and Milan are very confident of signing the player and the move can close as early as tomorrow. Max Allegri's side will sign the Nigerian for an initial loan deal with an option to buy for €30 million. Manchester United's Rasmus Hojlund was initially believed to be a key target but Napoli are making progress for the Dane now, even if Milan had been coming close to signing him over the last week or so.

Harris English Sounds Off on Ryder Cup Spot at Bethpage: 'I Belong'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. All eyes in the golf world are staring at East Lake this week, host venue for the 2025 Tour Championship. Thirty of the best golfers on the planet will look to claim the FedEx Cup as the season-long champion. Yet, veteran Harris English is still over the moon about another accomplishment. Team USA's six automatic qualifying spots were determined after last week's BMW Championship, where Scottie Scheffler won yet again. English tied for 12th at 3-under, jumping from sixth to fifth in the Ryder Cup rankings. He passed Bryson DeChambeau, who only garners points through majors with LIV Golf still left out in the cold. On the eve of the Tour Championship teeing off, English was asked his thoughts on not having to wait for a captain's pick. "Making that Ryder Cup team on points was a big goal of mine. I was a captain's pick back in 2021, so making that team on points and finishing fifth just makes me believe that I belong.

We're going to grow a lot closer the next few weeks, and getting all prepared for Bethpage." Four years ago, the Americans decimated Team Europe 19-9 at Whistling Straits. But this year is sure to be a much bigger challenge. Camaraderie and cohesion are extremely important at the Ryder Cup. Hence on Tuesday night, the six members who have automatically qualified for the team (Scheffler, English, JJ Spaun, Xander Schauffele, Russell Henley, Bryson DeChambeau) all had dinner together for the first time. "Yeah, dinner was great. We had some good conversations. It was good to get everybody in the room and had some of the stats guys there, and get everybody thinking the same way and getting everybody's thoughts." Team USA is looking to rebound after an embarrassing loss at the 2023 Ryder Cup in Rome, Italy. This time, they have home-course advantage with the tournament being played at Bethpage Black in New York. More Golf: Scottie Scheffler Shares What He Took From Tiger Woods to Stay Motivated
