Inter pushes for Khalaili as price gap narrows

Inter Milan is intensifying negotiations with Belgian side Union Saint‑Gilloise for Israeli right‑back Anan Khalaili. The club initially offered around €20 million, while Union Saint‑Gilloise set a €30 million ask. Inter has now raised its bid to €23 million plus bonuses and is counting on Khalaili’s expressed wish to join Inter over other suitors such as Napoli.

The transfer is proceeding without intermediaries, according to Fabrizio Romano, and could close before the summer window shuts. If Union Saint‑Gilloise does not lower its price, Inter has identified a fallback option in French defender Guéla Doué of Strasbourg, valued at roughly €20 million. The club is also pursuing Chelsea defender Chalobah and may need to off‑load either Luis Henrique or Diouf to make room in the squad.

Overall, the deal remains in a critical phase, with both sporting and financial considerations shaping Inter’s final move for the right‑hand flank.
