Inter Milan transfer of Kristjan Asllani

In late July 2026 Inter Milan moved from contemplating a loan return for midfielder Kristjan Asllani to seeking a permanent sale. On 23 July the club announced it would sell Asllani outright for an asking price of roughly €10‑15 million, with Sassuolo showing interest and Cagliari exploring possibilities. The decision was framed as part of a broader squad‑clean‑up and a way to fund new signings.

A week later, on 30 July, Inter’s sporting director Cristi Chivu confirmed that Asllani had been omitted from the team’s Asian and Australian pre‑season tour and was told to find a new club. The club’s valuation of the player rose to about €15 million, and it hinted at a target fee of around €40 million, linking his departure to the pending Curtis Jones transfer. The announcement underscored that Asllani would not be reintegrated into the first‑team project, signalling a more definitive exit strategy.

Together the snapshots show Inter’s rapid shift from a modest sale plan to a firm exclusion of the player and an escalated price expectation within a single week.
