Report – Inter Milan Open To Selling France Star Amid Pursuit Of Parma Youngster
Inter Milan are reportedly ready to sell Benjamin Pavard in order to make room for Parma starlet Giovanni Leoni. According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the French star could fall victim to Inter's pursuit of the 18-year-old. On the contrary, the Serie A runners-up have put the former Bayern Munich defender up for sale. However, Pavard has made it clear he would only join a 'top' European club. Inter Milan to Sell Benjamin Pavard to Raise Funds for Giovanni Leoni MILAN, ITALY – APRIL 16: Benjamin Pavard of FC Internazionale applauds the fans as he warms up prior to the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 Quarter Final Second Leg match between FC Internazionale Milano and FC Bayern München at San Siro on April 16, 2025 in Milan, Italy. (Photo by) Pavard's exit would not only open space for Giovanni Leoni, but it would also bolster Inter's bank accounts. Indeed, the 29-year-old will only leave Giuseppe Meazza for a substantial offer, probably in the region of €20 million. However, that's only half of what Parma demand to let their sought-after youngster leave the club this summer. Tracked by Inter since the beginning of the summer, Leoni has also drawn interest from AC Milan and Juventus. Moreover, Liverpool and Manchester United may try to bring the Italian prodigy to the Premier League.

Report – Genoa Open To Discuss Transfer Of Inter Milan Target
Inter Milan have received a significant transfer boost in their pursuit of Genoa defender Koni De Winter. According to Il Secolo XIX via FCInter1908, the Griffins are open to selling their star center-back this summer. Parma starlet Giovanni Leoni remains a dream defensive signing for the Nerazzurri. Indeed, Cristian Chivu has already asked the club to sign the 18-year-old, whom he coached at Ennio Tardini last term. However, the Crusaders' substantial €40 million asking price continues to throw a spanner in the works. Inter Milan Handed Koni De Winter Transfer Boost GENOA, ITALY – FEBRUARY 17: Koni De Winter of Genoa looks on during the Serie A match between Genoa and Venezia at Stadio Luigi Ferraris on February 17, 2025 in Genoa, Italy. (Photo by) Before making more incoming deals, Inter must first sell several out-of-favor squad members. Furthermore, they're willing to stretch their budget to the limit to lure Ademola Lookman away from Atalanta. Therefore, they're at risk of running out of funds. Nonetheless, there's a feeling that Beppe Marotta could strengthen Chivu's defensive options until the end of August. Despite being priced out of a move for Leoni, Inter could add to their backline. De Winter is the man in question, with Genoa willing to listen to offers for the 23-year-old.

Report – Juventus Plan To Hijack Inter Milan Pursuit Of Parma Starlet In 2026
Juventus reportedly intend to beat Inter Milan to the signature of Parma youngster Giovanni Leoni next year. According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the Bianconeri cannot make a tangible proposal for the 18-year-old this summer. Indeed, strapped for cash, Juventus must postpone their pursuit of the prodigious defender until 2026. Meanwhile, Juve's plan to open talks for Giovanni Leoni next year aligns perfectly with Parma's intentions. The Crusaders are desperate to keep their rising star at Ennio Tardini for the 2025/26 season. Juventus Set to Rival Inter Milan for Giovanni Leoni UDINE, ITALY – MARCH 01: Giovanni Leoni of Parma reacts at the end of the Serie A match between Udinese and Parma at Stadio Friuli on March 01, 2025 in Udine, Italy. (Photo by) Juventus' ambition to sign Leoni threatens to undermine Inter's long-standing interest in the Italian starlet. Despite genuinely trying to reunite Leoni with Cristian Chivu, the Nerazzurri have no funds to make it happen. Indeed, everything hinges on player sales. After exhausting the budget, Inter will make one last purchase in the shape of Ademola Lookman. Therefore, all remaining incoming deals will depend entirely on outgoing transfers. With Juventus ready to enter the race in 2026, Inter would be wise to take concrete action this summer.

Report – Inter Milan Coach Requests Signing Of Parma Teenage Sensation But Fund Raising Needed
Inter Milan head coach Cristian Chivu has reportedly urged the club to sign Parma youngster Giovanni Leoni. According to Corriere dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri cannot chase the teenager before selling several fringe players. Giovanni Leoni has been on Inter's radar since the beginning of the summer. However, talks with Parma have yet to gain momentum, as Chivu's men have focused on addressing other priorities. Furthermore, last season's Serie A runners-up are currently trying to sign Ademola Lookman. Cristian Chivu Urges Inter Milan to Pursue Parma Starlet Giovanni Leoni BOLOGNA, ITALY – OCTOBER 06: Giovanni Leoni of Parma calcio looks on during the Serie A match between Bologna and Parma at Stadio Renato Dall'Ara on October 06, 2024 in Bologna, Italy. (Photo by) Only after signing Lookman will Inter turn to other targets. Yet, Leoni's arrival will only be possible if the Nerazzurri manage to offload several out-of-favor players. Indeed, Lookman's transfer will empty the club's coffers, forcing Inter to raise funds for further additions. Chivu has already put numerous fringe stars up for sale. However, the Italians have been unable to find new clubs for players like Kristjan Asllani and Mehdi Taremi. Furthermore, they're hoping to sever ties with Yann Bisseck, whose exit would secure the cash for Leoni.
