As reported Fabrizio Romano on his twitter accountthe Inter de Milan is closing the agreement with Atalanta to sign Robin Gosens in this winter transfer market. A movement that comes hand in hand with the team’s need to strengthen its left lane, where they will lose Ivan Perisic in the summer because he ends his contract and does not want to renew.
It is a matter of details for the operation to be closed. The contract with the footballer will be negotiated in a few hours, but the agreement with Atalanta is closed: Loan with obligation to purchase for a price of around 22 million euros plus bonuses. The Bergamo team accepted the offer because the German’s contract ends in the summer of 2023 and, at the end of this campaign, he would enter his last year of contract, so they could lose him for free in the short term.
A leap in quality for all
Robin Gosens, 27, who joined Atalanta from Heracles Melo for 1.17 million euros in the summer of 2017, is one of the best left wingers in the world. He showed it in Gian Piero Gasperini’s team, where he is a key player, and in the Germany team at the last European Championship, he was one of the most outstanding players. He is a sensational signing for Simone Inzaghi, who wants to lead Inter Milan to repeat the Serie A title and transcend in the UEFA Champions League, where they will face Liverpool in the Round of 16.
This campaign has had few minutes due to his eventual departure from the club at short notice. He has 2 goals and 1 assist in 8 games played in all competitions. Giuseppe Pezzella and Davide Zappacosta took his place several times as a left winger in Gasperini’s system.
