Inter Milan’s new head coach Cristi Chivu met for two hours with club president Giuseppe Marotta and sporting director Piero Ausilio to discuss this summer’s transfer priorities, focusing on defender Giovanni Leoni and midfielder Ederson, who together cost around €100 million. However, the club’s transfer budget is capped at €100 million and already €70 million has been spent on recent signings, forcing Inter to consider player sales to generate funds. Potential departures include Hakan Calhanoglu and Yann Sommer, targeted by Galatasaray, and Denzel Dumfries, whose €25 million release clause attracts Barcelona interest. Italian media predict a turbulent transfer window for Inter and highlight that Chivu’s true test will come in autumn to prove his managerial credentials after a mixed start for the team. This summer’s transfer strategy will be decisive for Inter’s bid to return to Serie A and Champions League success under Chivu’s leadership[^1^][^2^][^3^].
