As already said, Inter Milan seem to be extremely active on the transfer market, but to obtain many of their main targets they will have to compete with other Italian and foreign top clubs; for example, as reported by the Corriere dello Sport, the nerazzurri have been joined by Napoli in the hunt for Genoa 21 year old right back Sime Vrsaljko and FC Porto 26 year old Fernando Francisco Reges; on the contrary, for what concerns the offensive line, to obtain River Plate 18 year old Angel Correa, the Lombard club, according to the Sunday Mirror, will have to compete with Arsenal and Atletico de Madrid; another forward tracked by Inter is Bologna 30 year old Rolando Bianchi, but, interviewed by calcionews24, the rossoblu General Manager Roberto Zanzi has been quite elusive about the possibility for the former Torino player to leave. The nerazzurri are in any case also working to keep some of their cornerstones, and, as highlighted by calciomercato.com, are ready to extend the contract of 33 year old defensive midfielder Esteban Cambiasso, actually expiring at the end of the season, even if the Argentina international will probably have to accept a lower salary.

Also Serie A defending champions Juventus seem intentioned to keep one of their veterans: according to Bild, Borussia Dortmund are keen on 30 year old forward Mirko Vucinic, but the bianconeri will refuse any offer made by the German club for the Montenegro international.
