Frank de Boers arrival on the bench at Inter starts a new chapter in the clubs history. New owners Suning and President Thohir intend to make the squad as competitive as possible before the August 31 deadline. Two names in particular, have become priority targets.
 

The first welcome gift for the Dutchman will be one of his former pupils at Ajax in the shape of 19-year-old midfielder Riechedly Bazoer. The youngster has is believed to have been already requested by de Boer  and it seems as though the only obstacle, according to Tuttosport, is to try to overcome the €25 million valuation on the player by the Dutch giants.  

Meanwhile, the nerazzurri have not changed their strategy for Gabigol. The 19-year-old Brazilian is still considered to be the right man for the attack. Corriere dello Sport claims that de Boer is already a fan of the youngster and would be delighted to welcome him to his new squad. Discussions will continue after the Olympic Games where he is representing his country in the football competition.
