Inter are increasingly looking at Nice’s full-back come winger Youcef Atal. Atal has been a revelation for the French side this season, having signed in the summer as a relative unknown from Algerian side Paradou AC. 

Having started the season playing right-back he has recently been employed on the wings, and to devastating affect too, as shown by his hatrick recently against Guingamp.

It was this performance that has really put his name on the lips of sporting director’s around the world. But Nice have been steadfast in their position that he is not for sale this summer. Following his goal scoring exploits against Guingamp, Nice manager Vieira again reiterated the clubs position on the Algerian maestro saying that “We are not sellers. Youcef will be here next season.”

However that has not stopped clubs from positioning themselves for his signing, and it is thought that despite Nice’s objections, he may still see a move in the summer. Inter are joined by PSG and Atletico Madrid on a growing list of admirers.
