Links have emerged between Inter Milan and Palmeiras midfielder Richard Rios over the last couple days.
Reportedly, the Colombian international has come onto the Nerazzurri's radar as a possible replacement for Hakan Calhanoglu in the event they lose him to Galatasaray or another club.
Rios has a release clause in his contract worth €100 million. However, it would not take that fee to sign the 25-year-old from Palmeiras.
Meanwhile, Premier League side West Ham United have reportedly also made an offer for Rios.

Report – Inter Milan Offered Fenerbahce & Morocco Midfielder
Serie A giants Inter Milan reportedly have a chance to sign Fenerbahce midfielder Sofyan Amrabat. According to FCInter1908, Amrabat's representatives have reportedly offered his services to the Nerazzurri. It could be an attempt to capitalize on Inter's ongoing pursuit of a new deep-lying midfielder. Despite signing a permanent contract with Fenerbahce only two months ago, Amrabat is seeking a way back to Serie A. Indeed, he left Fiorentina for Istanbul last summer but now wants to return to Italian football.

Report – Rayo Vallecano To Pull Out Of Talks For Inter Milan & Argentina Defender
Problems keep piling up for Inter Milan, with Rayo Vallecano set to withdraw from talks to sign Tomas Palacios. According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Spaniards are drifting away, leaving Inter with fewer options to offload their flop. Despite emerging as the strongest contenders to sign the 22-year-old, Rayo Vallecano are having second thoughts. Indeed, they are reportedly ready to call off their pursuit of Tomas Palacios, giving Inter another reason for concern. Rayo Vallecano Set to Withdraw from Talks for Inter Milan Bust Tomas Palacios MONZA, ITALY – MARCH 02: Nikola Vlasic of Torino is challenged by Tomas Palacios of Monza during the Serie A match between Monza and Torino at U-Power Stadium on March 02, 2025 in Monza, Italy. (Photo by) As if missing out on Giovanni Leoni's signature wasn't troubling enough, Inter cannot catch a break on the outgoing market. Leoni has joined Liverpool for a reported fee of €35 million despite Inter's long-standing interest in his services. However, that's the least of Inter's problems. Indeed, the San Siro giants aim to offload Palacios, whom they signed from Independiente Rivadavia last summer. Yet, like in the case of Kristjan Asllani, they cannot find an agreement with potential suitors, leaving the player's future uncertain.

Report – Udinese Center-Back Becomes Inter Milan Top Defensive Target
Inter Milan will reportedly focus on signing Udinese center-back Oumar Solet in the final days of the transfer window. According to Foot Mercato via FCInterNews, the Frenchman has become Inter's top target after dropping interest in Ademola Lookman. Signing a new central defender has become a priority for the Nerazzurri, with Benjamin Pavard expected to leave soon. Even if the Frenchman stays, Cristian Chivu's men will try to lure Oumar Solet away from Udinese. Inter Milan Make Udinese Star Oumar Solet Top Priority UDINE, ITALY – FEBRUARY 16: Oumar Solet of Udinese during the Serie A match between Udinese and Empoli at Stadio Friuli on February 16, 2025 in Udine, Italy. (Photo by) Solet's versatility and ability to play in different defensive set-ups have caught Inter's eye. Furthermore, they are ready to overlook rape allegations and give Solet the benefit of the doubt. However, the 25-year-old won't come cheap, with Udinese slapping a €30 million price tag on their in-demand defender. After missing out on Loic Bade and Renato Veiga, Inter are pushing hard to sign Solet before the transfer window closes. Pavard's sale would likely facilitate Solet's arrival, but Inter are still negotiating with foreign suitors. Nonetheless, they will continue pursuing Solet aggressively.
