This move suggests Mehdi Taremi is on the verge of leaving the Nerazzurri toward the end of the summer.
Indeed, there's no place for the Iranian center-forward at San Siro after the arrival of Ange-Yoan Bonny.
Therefore, Inter have placed the former Porto star on the market.
Despite generating plenty of interest across Europe, they've yet to receive offers for their wantaway striker.
Fulham and Leeds United had thought about bringing him to the Premier League. But they've never contacted Inter.
Meanwhile, Taremi has confirmed that he wants to stay in Europe's traditional top-five leagues.

Arne Slot makes HUGE Richard Hughes contract demand

Liverpool are still in the midst of a landmark summer transfer campaign. The Reds have spent close to £300m since winning the Premier League title on new players. Florian Wirtz, Hugo Ekitike, Milos Kerkez, Jeremie Frimpong, Giovanni Leoni and Giorgi Mamardashvili have all come through the door for the champions. 🔴 Shop the LFC 2025/26 adidas home range Shop the LFC Store 🚨2025/26 LFC x adidas range🚨 LFC x adidas Shop the home range today! LFC x adidas Shop the goalkeeper range today LFC x adidas Shop the new adidas range today! And to balance the books, sporting director Richard Hughes has also overseen the departures of several first-team players. 🔴 That list is headed by Luis Diaz and Darwin Nunez - while Jarell Quansah, Ben Doak, Caoimhin Kelleher, Tyler Morton, Trent Alexander-Arnold and Nat Phillips have also left. Konate future uncertain But Liverpool are by no means done. We could see Alexander Isak arrive as the club's new No9 before the window is out - although Newcastle have not yet agreed to release their star striker. Marc Guehi is another who could arrive - with the Crystal Palace captain out of contract in 2026. Part of the reason that Liverpool are interested in the England international is that Ibrahima Konate is in the same boat. Under contract until 2026, Liverpool are unsure whether the France defender will be at the club next season. Arne Slot wants to keep Konate Accordingly there have been suggestions that the 26-year-old could either be sold this summer or else replaced by Guehi on a Bosman in 2026. However according to a new report in Defensa Central, Liverpool are NOT giving up on Konate - and Arne Slot in particular is doing all he can to ensure the title-winning stopper stays. 'Arne Slot has asked his directors for an extra effort to prevent the Frenchman from leaving Anfield,' the report reads. Konate signed for Liverpool back in 2021 from RB Leipzig but has only come into his own as a bonafide top-class player in the last 12 months or so. © IMAGO Konate's sizeable contract demands He earns around £140k per week on his current contract - and it's been reported that he wants £200k per week to renew. Of course Real Madrid can not only offer a blockbuster salary but also a sizeable signing-on fee - estimated at €18m. The financial lure is strong but the indications are that Slot is asking his club to pull out all the stops to prevent Konate from leaving.

Brentford reject bid worth up to £40m from Newcastle for Yoane Wissa

Newcastle United have seen an improved bid for forward Yoane Wissa rejected by Brentford. The proposal was worth £35million plus £5m in difficult-to-achieve add-ons but turned down. Brentford sources, speaking on the condition of anonymity as they were not authorised to discuss the situation, have stressed that the club have not provided a target price to any team. Advertisement Wissa wants the move to St James's Park. The Athletic reported on July 22 that Brentford rejected a £25m proposal from Newcastle for the 28-year-old, who scored 19 Premier League goals in the 2024-25 season. Nottingham Forest also had a bid rejected for the DR Congo international in July, having previously had an approach rebuffed in January. Wissa returned from Brentford's pre-season training camp in Portugal to hold face-to-face talks over his future with the Brentford hierarchy. He did not play in pre-season and was absent from the squad for their opening fixture of the Premier League campaign against Nottingham Forest, which ended in a 3-1 defeat. Newcastle turned their attentions to Wissa after cooling their interest in Frankfurt striker Hugo Ekitike, who eventually joined Liverpool. Newcastle have missed out on several striker targets this summer in addition to Ekitike, including Joao Pedro, Liam Delap (both Chelsea) and Benjamin Sesko (Manchester United). Their pursuit of a front man comes amid Alexander Isak's desire to leave, with the Sweden international saying on social media on Tuesday that his relationship with the club 'can't continue.' Wissa, who joined Brentford from French side Lorient in 2021, has another year on his contract, and the Premier League club hold an option to extend his terms for a further 12 months. Brentford have had a summer of major change, with head coach Thomas Frank departing the club to join Tottenham Hotspur alongside three members of his backroom coaching staff. Meanwhile, captain Christian Norgaard joined Arsenal and 20-goal forward Bryan Mbeumo completed a transfer to Manchester United. Mbeumo and Wissa scored 39 of Brentford's 66 goals in the top-flight last season. Wissa has recorded 49 goals and 13 assists in 149 appearances for Brentford. Spot the pattern.

NFL preseason live updates: Aaron Rodgers won't play a snap for Steelers this preseason

[NFL top storylines | NFL team feeds | NFL camp/preseason live blog] We won't get our first in-game glimpse of Aaron Rodgers as the Pittsburgh Steelers' starting quarterback until Week 1. Head coach Mike Tomlin told media Tuesday that Rodgers will sit out the preseason finale Thursday against the Carolina Panthers, along with wide receiver DK Metcalf, who also hasn't played this preseason. Tomlin also said Steelers veterans T.J. Watt and Cam Heyward, who participated in team drills Tuesday amid his contract dispute, won't play Thursday. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] Rodgers not playing in the preseason is nothing new for him, or veteran quarterbacks really. He's only played one preseason game since 2018, for the New York Jets in 2023 as he was acclimating to a new team. It might have made sense for Rodgers to play at least a series for Pittsburgh this month, given questions over the schematic fit with offensive coordinator Arthur Smith. Yahoo Sports' Nate Tice broke down the partnership on Football 301's AFC North preview, and noted Rodgers isn't mobile anymore, doesn't like to throw over the middle of the field where more of the big-play opportunities are, and likes to take his time at the line of scrimmage with very little pre-snap motion, all of which conflicts on some level with what Smith has traditionally wanted his offenses to do. That said, Rodgers has spoken fondly of the relationship thus far between himself and Smith, and Smith has said he's constructing the offense around Rodgers' skill set. And Tomlin gave a straight answer for why he was comfortable with Rodgers not playing in preseason. "I'm comfortable with what I've seen out here," he said, via NFL Network. There you have it. We'll see Rodgers play for the Steelers in Week 1 — at the Jets, as it happens. NFL top storylines Colts name Daniel Jones starting QB over Anthony Richardson: Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen told reporters Tuesday that his decision to go with Daniel Jones isn't just a Week 1 arrangement. "He's the starting quarterback for the season,' Steichen said. "I don't want to have a short leash on that." So where does that leave Anthony Richardson Sr.? Well, the Colts made a huge gamble on him in the draft, and it could still pay off down the road. It's not like Jones is a lock to keep the job all season. But the Colts' brain trust of Steichen and GM Chris Ballard need to win now to keep their jobs, and Richardson has struggled to do that. Trey Hendrickson, Bengals still at odds over guaranteed money: Trey Hendrickson spoke to ESPN about his contract situation during Monday night's preseason game vs. the Commanders, and while he offered some hope about a future deal, he made it clear there's still one major issue preventing him from agreeing to a deal. The star pass rusher said he and the Bengals are close on annual salary and length of his next contract, but the team's unwillingness to give him guaranteed money remains the sticking point. The Bengals are reportedly willing to guarantee money for one year of Hendrickson's next contract, but won't extend the guarantees beyond that. Until they are willing to grant that, it sounds like Hendrickson is willing to remain on the sideline. Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. appears to be on his way out: With Brian Robinson Jr. sidelined amid trade rumors, Washington ran roughshod over a porous Bengals defense as both teams played their starters early. The Commanders exploded for a four-play, 73-yard touchdown drive on their opening possession without throwing a pass. Running back Chris Rodriguez broke free for a 40-yard run to set up quarterback Jayden Daniels for a 14-yard touchdown scramble through and past multiple hapless Bengals defenders. Then came Jacory Croskey-Merritt's time to shine. The seventh-round rookie out of Arizona took the starring role on Washington's second drive with 32 rushing yards as the Commanders needed just three plays to score their second touchdown of the game. Croskey-Merritt capped the drive with a 27-yard touchdown run.
