Inter are not best pleased with Atalanta, because by knocking Olympique Marseille out of the Europa League, it means Joaquin Correa will not be purchased outright.
The Nerazzurri had loaned Correa to Marseille last summer for €2m with a conditional obligation to buy clause attached at €10m.
It would mean his sale would be permanent if Olympique Marseille qualified for the Champions League.
They are struggling in Ligue 1 and had hoped to secure their place by winning the Europa League.
However, they were eliminated 4-1 on aggregate by Atalanta, who beat Correa’s side 3-0 in Bergamo in the semi-final second leg last night.
Inter stuck with Correa
As Correa still has a contract with Inter until June 2025, it is going to be a struggle to find a buyer for him this summer.
According to TNT Sports Argentina, the main hope for Inter is Argentina, as Estudiantes are said to be interested in signing him.
This would be a return home, as Correa started his professional career with the club.
Inter paid €33.3m to sign Tucu Correa from Lazio, initially on loan and then permanently, in 2021.
Irritated? What nonsense is this? Not happy, but irritated? Probably we readers are more irritated with another ridiculous Susy article. Irritated, bit not surprised.
Dscopi is right. Awful headline.
What a bad choice of headline. I’m an Inter fan and I’m certainly not irritated. That’s doesn’t reflect the feeling at all, Atalanta has done nothing irritating on their part.
