Report – Inter Milan Consider Move For Genoa Star Before Deadline Day

Inter Milan are reportedly considering a move to sign Genoa midfielder Morten Frendrup before the transfer window closes. This according to Milan-based newspaper Gazzetta dello Sport, via FCInterNews. They report that the Nerazzurri could aim to sign the Dane after their pursuit of Manu Kone came to nothing. Inter Milan are already fairly well-stocked in midfield. However, there are questions about whether the Nerazzurri have the right profiles for new coach Cristian Chivu. Inter have a number of midfielders who suit the 3-5-2 system well. However, Chivu has been trying to change the Nerazzurri over to a 3-4-2-1 formation. And there aren't many players who really fit into the double pivot of such s shape. Inter Consider Move For Genoa Midfielder Morten Frendrup NAPLES, ITALY – MAY 11: Philip Billing of Napoli battles for possession with Morten Frendrup of Genoa during the Serie A match between Napoli and Genoa at Stadio Diego Armando Maradona on May 11, 2025 in Naples, Italy. (Photo by) The logic was clear from Inter when they made an offer for Roma midfielder Manu Kone. The Frenchman is a natural holding midfielder. He can win and keep possession deep on the pitch. However, the Nerazzurri have not managed to sign Kone. Roma decided to reject their advances for the 24-year-old. Therefore, reports the Gazzetta dello Sport, Inter could look elsewhere to bolster their midfield with a similar profile.

Report – Two Summer Signings To Start For Inter Milan In Friendly Clash Vs Olympiacos

Summer signings Petar Sucic and Luis Henrique are reportedly both set to start for Inter Milan in today's friendly clash with Olympiacos. This according to Italian broadcaster SportMediaset, via FCInter1908. Inter Milan take on Olympiacos in a friendly match this evening. This will be the Nerazzurri's final warmup match before the start of the Serie A season next weekend. Inter take on Torino in their first league match of the campaign on August 25th. Inter coach Cristian Chivu will have the chance to sharpen up his team one more time before the competitive action begins. Petar Sucic & Luis Henrique To Start For Inter Vs Olympiacos SEATTLE, WASHINGTON – JUNE 21: Luis Henrique #11 of FC Internazionale Milano looks on prior to the FIFA Club World Cup 2025 group E match between FC Internazionale Milano and Urawa Red Diamonds at Lumen Field on June 21, 2025 in Seattle, Washington. (Photo by) According to Italian broadcaster SportMediaset, Chivu will take this evening as an opportunity to bed in a couple summer signings. By and large, the broadcaster anticipates, the coach will go with the first-choice starting eleven. Therefore, that means that mostly it will be a team of players that started regularly last season. However, in midfield, Petar Sucic will get the starts, reports Mediaset. The Croatian international will get the nod ahead of Henrikh Mkhitaryan. Therefore, that looks to be a signal that Sucic will be a regular starter next season ahead of Mkhitaryan.

Aston Villa 0-0 Newcastle: What Howe said

Newcastle United drew 0-0 away to Aston Villa on Saturday in their opening game of the Premier League season and manager Eddie Howe believes his players 'gave everything'. "I'm happy with the point. I thought we were magnificent, front-foot, very aggressive. We had chances to score," Howe told BBC Match of the Day. "I think we had a bit of a lull in the game until the red card and then came on strong again. I'm disappointed we didn't win. I don't think we dominated, chance-wise, the way we wanted. We were maybe a little bit too anxious to score but the players really turned up and gave everything." On needing a striker: "I can't criticise anyone who played today. I thought Anthony Gordon was very good in that position. I couldn't fault his performance. I think we have to focus at how the team functioned rather than any individual. "If you're not totally together in the Premier League, you're going to find it very difficult. I think we answered a few questions today in terms of our spirit. We have to do that on a regular basis, not just today." On Alexander Isak: "From my perspective, you want a resolution quickly. It's taking away the focus of the players, of the supporters. We want to be united together. We'd like a resolution, but we're not in control of that." He added, speaking to TNT Sports: "It's a difficult one to answer. I hope it's resolved quickly, because it's news around us all the time. Players have managed to shut that out and perform. We have to continue to do that. We have to cope without the narrative against us." On facing Liverpool next: "It's always spicy against Liverpool, there's a history to the fixture. We look forward to it. We know how good they are." On Anthony Elanga: "He was really good. I thought he was direct, showed real quality. He looks like a player who will elevate us."
