Contract Talks and Player Stance
While the clubs appear to have settled on the core structure of the deal, discussions are still ongoing between Bologna and Asllani’s representatives concerning personal terms. The midfielder, however, is understood to be receptive to the switch and is anticipated to sign a five-year contract once negotiations are finalised.
Career at Inter
Asllani joined Inter in 2022 from Empoli and has since made 99 appearances across all competitions for the Nerazzurri, contributing 4 goals and 5 assists. Despite his involvement, he has struggled to cement a place in the starting XI under Simone Inzaghi, prompting the club to explore transfer options.
Other Inter Transfer Activity
In addition to the Asllani deal, Inter are on the cusp of completing the sale of Nicola Zalewski to Atalanta. However, negotiations remain stalled regarding the potential acquisition of Atalanta forward Ademola Lookman, who continues to be a priority target for the Nerazzurri.
