Then there are prized assets who are expected to be subject to offers. One of them in Alessandro Bastoni, who is attracting significant interest from Catalan giants Barcelona.

Another is Denzel Dumfries. Inter’s seasoned full-back has had admirers ever since he moved to Italy from Dutch side PSV half a decade ago. Now, with two years remaining in his €5.13m-per-year contract, which also has a €25m release clause that becomes active in July, the 29-year-old may finally be on the move.
As reported by TuttoMercatoWeb, the Netherlands international has multiple admirers in the Premier League and LaLiga, while in the Bundesliga Bayern Munich are also closely monitoring his situation.
Inter have seemingly already begun preparing for life after Dumfries. The Nerazzurri have been linked with Atalanta full-back Marco Palestra in recent weeks, with club president Beppe Marotta having admitted that he’s an admirer of the 21-year-old.
