Humiliation remains fresh. Balayed by PSG in the Champions League final, Inter Milan still has this historic slap across the throat (5-0). So, without saying it too much, the Lombard club seems to want to make the currency of its play. And his first “revenge” could take the form of a little market, going to get a player in the Parisian ranks.
A winning deal for everyone?
This player is Marco Asensio. According to La Gazzetta dello Sportthe president of Inter, Beppe Marotta, has personally positioned in the Spanish attacking midfielder. Returning from a loan to Aston Villa where it has not been kept, Asensio is no longer one of the priority plans of PSG. Paris also entered it on its list of transfers this summer. Inter, in search of technical and experienced profiles to rebuild an offensive line, sees in him a good opportunity.
On the PSG side, this departure would be more a relief than a sacrifice. Luis Enrique has never really integrated the former Madrid into his priority rotation. And with the targeted arrivals this summer, Asensio knows that he will have to go to play. The player would be seduced by the prospect of joining a qualified club in the Champions League, in a championship that he has known indirectly since his years Real.
Asensio, currency of a hot summer?
The interim opportunistic, more than revengeful
If the idea of ​​“flying” a player at PSG amuses the tifosi, it is above all symbolic. Inter does not lead a crusade against Paris. The choice of Asensio responds above all to a logic of profile, cost and experience. It is not a question of hitting a big blow, but of adding a reliable link to the workforce. Revenge? Yes, on the season, but not necessarily in Paris.
There will probably be no revenge on the field this season. But on the market, the Inter wants to strike just. By relaunching Asensio, it especially shows its ability to attract names even after a bitter reverse. And PSG does not seem determined to oppose it.
