Yann Karamoh’s agent has claimed that French players “don’t want to come to Italy anymore” but insists the winger is doing “very well” at Inter.
Karamoh only moved to Inter from Caen last summer in a €5.5m deal, scoring his first goal for the club a fortnight ago, but Oscar Damiani believes the teenager is part of a dying breed.
“Karamoh’s doing very well,” he told Sportitalia.

Karamoh only moved to Inter from Caen last summer in a €5.5m deal, scoring his first goal for the club a fortnight ago, but Oscar Damiani believes the teenager is part of a dying breed.
“Karamoh’s doing very well,” he told Sportitalia.
“I offered him to Inter, who already knew about him, so much so that Ausilio told me that he wanted to sign him right away.
“They paid €5.5m, even though he only had one year left on his contract [with Caen]. Still, they’re not huge figures.
“I didn’t struggle to take him to Milan because they already knew him. The negotiations only became difficult with Caen because there were English clubs, in addition to Saint-Étienne, who offered much more.
“Still, the lad went against the grain to join Inter: the French don’t want to come to Italy anymore. It’s become difficult for me to bring young people from France to Serie A.”
