One bet won, another to be won soon. After Zalewski, Inter could sink the blow for another Roma player.

When it comes to the market, there is always that fine balance, made up of bargains taken and others lost in extremis, there where paths often cross in the most curious ways. Such is the case with Inter, which from January to the present has shown that it knows very well how to move among the invisible threads of opportunities.
Among the less thunderous, but perhaps more intelligent, moves has been that of Nicola Zalewski. Arriving without trumpet blasts, to the tune of tidy performances, running and pliability, he earned a real space in Simone Inzaghi’s Inter. On the right, on the left, where he was needed: a luxury stopper, like few around.
The formula with which he landed in Milan is clear: loan with a right of redemption set at 6 million euros. A figure that can be reduced to guarantee Inzaghi a really valuable wildcard. They are already reasoning on how to negotiate with Roma to try to file something, perhaps taking advantage of the position of Zalewski, who in Trigoria was now little more than a home separate.
Indeed, there are those who whisper that another name may end up in the operation as well. One of those that, just saying it, until recently seemed sacrilege. But which now, given the premises, would surprise no one.
Lorenzo Pellegrini pronto a lasciare la Roma: Inter e Napoli su di lui
And yes, that name is indeed Lorenzo Pellegrini. Captain, Roman, raised with the myth of Totti and De Rossi. Yet today, his story with Roma seems destined to end like some great loves: without blatant drama, but with a slow daily crumbling.

The season has been a bit of an ordeal. So many problems, also and above all performance problems, the criticism that has become increasingly heavy and the captain’s armband has become almost a ballast. A situation that, in today’s soccer, often leads to only one conclusion: to separate to start again, and Pellegrini would seem to have matured this solution long ago.
There is certainly no shortage of suitors. Napoli had been looking for him as early as January, and at one point it seemed really done. Then that goal in the derby put everything back on hold. But it was only a matter of time, and time is now running out.
Among those closely watching is also Inter, which knows it may soon lose important pieces in the midfield, Davide Frattesi above all, and is looking at Pellegrini as an immediate quality graft. Making everything even more interesting is a detail not to be underestimated: Pellegrini and Zalewski share the same agent, Giampiero Pocetta. A professional who knows Marotta and Ausilio well, who has already woven good relations and who, in the market, makes all the difference in the world.

The idea of bringing Pellegrini to Milan is concrete. And there’s more: back in January we had already speculated to you about a swap that would have the sensational, with Frattesi in the Giallorossi and Pellegrini with a 20 million or so match at Inter, which now seems to be back in vogue. Nothing simple, of course. But not impossible either. Because the ground is fertile, the needs coincide, and contacts are already well underway.
