Inter are reportedly interested in striking a deal with Real Madrid for Türikye international Arda Güler as well as Como’s Nico Paz ahead of the summer transfer window, and the Nerazzurri feel they have an advantage for the former given his relationship with midfielder Hakan Calhanoglu.
For several months it has been reported that the Nerazzurri are interested in picking up Nico Paz in the summer transfer window. The talented 20-year-old joined Cesc Fabregas’s side in a permanent deal in the summer, but Madrid will still have the final say in his next move.
Los Blancos retain a 50% sell-on fee and also have a series of buy-back clauses, which means that they can bring him back to Madrid for a fee of €8m this summer, €9m in the summer of 2026 and €10m in the summer of 2027.
That means that Madrid could decide to bring him back in the summer, either as an additional option for the first team, or in order to sell him on for a greater profit.
However, reports on Thursday claim that Inter are also interested in 20-year-old Güler as well.
Inter interested in Güler as well as Paz
The Türikye star, who impressed with his performances at EURO 2024 last summer, has not been able to break into Carlo Ancelotti’s first team line-up at the Bernabeu and could reportedly be on the move in the summer, either on loan or on a permanent transfer.
According to reports from multiple outlets, including Tuttosport and Sport.es, Güler is keen on the idea of a move to Italy, despite reported interest from the Bundesliga, namely Bayer Leverkusen and Eintracht Frankfurt.
Sport.es notes that the success of fellow Türikye talent Kenan Yildiz in Serie A with Juventus is part of the reason why Italy is an attractive destination for Güler.
Inter also feel that they have a slight advantage over some of the other interested parties given the presence of Türikye national team captain Calhanoglu, who could potentially play a role in convincing Güler to join.
