San Siro prepares for Inter-Roma, meanwhile at home Inter is keeping the market in the news: in the crosshairs is a pupil of the coach: a swap with Frattesi is possible. Inzaghi ready to welcome new defensive mainstay

There is an air of change in the parts of Appiano Gentile, and it is not just the crisp one of the Lombard spring. Inter is looking ahead, with a season still to be written between the Scudetto and Champions League, but with a small part of itself already projected into the future.
Simone Inzaghi and his boys left the Coppa Italia on the road, it is true, but the main course is yet to come. At stake are the two most important competitions, three if we throw in the Club World Cup: if all of them arrived, it would still be a triumph, but it would already be a triumph even if only one arrived.
Yet by now in Inter’s head resounds that little word to which everyone had been mouthing again: Triplete. A little word that cannot help but give rise to reasoning: what does it take to really try? Certainly, regardless of how it ends, one basis is there: Inzaghi is at the center of the project. The club is satisfied, convinced that tomorrow’s Inter can really raise the bar.
With all the chatter about possible goodbyes or foreign temptations, the idea is clear. Continue with those who have brought the team within a step of the dream and, indeed, give a shot in the arm to everything that smacks of “already seen.”
Marotta ringiovanisce l’Inter: per la difesa c’è Gianluca Mancini
Beppe Marotta repeats it like a mantra: we need to rejuvenate, yes, but without throwing the baby out with the bathwater. There is no talk of improvised revolutions, nor of weaning lost kids. The concept is to find profiles that have fewer miles on the speedometer, but already know how to drive on the highway.

It is the defense that is the department under the lens. Acerbi and De Vrij have had an above-expectation season, and barring any surprises they will stay to provide solidity and experience. The age doesn’t lie, though, and the management knows it well.
Then there is the question of Bisseck. If someone knocks on the door with a concrete offer, Inter might even listen. Not because there is any urgency to sell, but because the back pack, now also supplemented by the adapted Carlos Augusto, could afford a minor makeover.
And just as today at 3 p.m. San Siro prepares to host Inter v Roma, it is inevitable to think that certain market plots may be knotted in the background of the match. Because on the field, challenging each other, there are also some of the players of the future, one of whom, according to some rumors collected by the editorial staff of Serieanews.com, is a big ball of Simone Inzaghi.
Simone Inzaghi vuole Gianluca Mancini: pronta la trattativa con la Roma
The name holding sway is that of Gianluca Mancini, a mainstay at Roma and also often in Spalletti’s Italy squad. An old-fashioned defender, the kind who may not make a thousand elegant touches, but who doesn’t move them even with a tractor. Class of ’96, grit to spare and the feeling that his cycle in the capital may be heading for the final turn.

After all, he hinted it himself, speaking to TV Play: the desire to return to the Champions League is great. And with Roma, the train may not pass in 2025. Here, then, the desire to change air, to relaunch himself on important stages, is beginning to creep in.
Inter, which Champions and Europe attend them with some regularity and would also like to try to win them, could be the ideal destination. But how does this all fit in with market strategies, without breaking the bank?
The thread that could bind the two teams has a well-known name: Davide Frattesi. A Roma darling, a soccer son who ran away from home too soon. Already in January, the Giallorossi had knocked on Inter’s door, but the 40 million they asked for made them pull the handbrake.
Now, as the months go by, the price may even drop to 30-35. A lot anyway, for a Roma that will have to deal with a less than healthy budget. And so, as is often the case in smart markets, a creative solution might take hold: an even swap.
Frattesi to Roma, Mancini to Inter: we told you about it back in January. An idea that is not new, already caressed in the corridors of Trigoria and Appiano in the winter, but that now could turn from suggestion to real negotiation.
