According to recent reports from Sport.fr, Inter Milan are focusing on securing a notable free transfer. The Nerazzurri have renewed and intensified their contacts with Mario Hermoso, a central defender set to be released by Atletico Madrid.

“Marotta is determined to get his hands on Hermoso despite the move being challenging,” a source close to the negotiations revealed to Sport.fr.
