Inter Milan fixes €70 million price for defender Alessandro Bastoni; Real Madrid interested
Inter Milan has set a €70 million valuation for centre‑back Alessandro Bastoni, whose contract runs to 2028. The club has indicated that the price will not be reduced, mirroring a previous €70 million demand made when Barcelona showed interest. Real Madrid are reported to be pursuing the defender and would need to meet that figure to secure a transfer.
In addition to Bastoni, Inter are active in the market for several other positions. Brazilian right‑wingback Wesley is a priority target, though Roma also consider him essential and would require a significant offer. Coach Cristian Chivu has highlighted Andy Diouf, who impressed in a friendly against Karlsruher, as a possible internal solution for the right flank. Midfield plans see Aleksandar Stanković preferred over Zielinski for a deeper‑lying role. The club is also negotiating for Argentine centre‑back Cristian Romero; Tottenham value him at €45‑50 million and Inter are exploring a loan with an option to buy. Recent defensive acquisitions include Ibrahima Konaté, Marc Cucurella and Denzel Dumfries.
