New Inter Coach Roberto Mancini looks to Premier League loans Vlad Chiriches, Matija Nastasic, Fabio Borini, Joel Campbell and Mohamed Salah.

The former Manchester City and Galatasaray manager was brought in today to replace Walter Mazzarri at San Siro.

President Erick Thohir confirmed there will be reinforcements in January, but the club cannot spend much due to Financial Fair Play restrictions.

According to Italian reports, Mancini is looking to the Premier League for possible loan deals.

Potential defenders include Chiriches of Tottenham, who has also been linked with Juventus, and Manchester City’s ex-Fiorentina player Nastasic.

In attack Liverpool benchwarmer Borini has long been of interest to the Nerazzurri along with Arsenal’s Costa Rica international Campbell.

A new option is Salah of Chelsea, although he could be ruled out for a month by the Africa Cup of Nations – assuming the tournament goes ahead.
