According to the famous Italian journalist Pedula, Atlanta's psychological price for Lukeman is 50 million euros (45 million + 5 million). Inter Milan is already working on signing negotiations, and they have to face the competition between Atletico Madrid and Arsenal.

Inter Milan is brewing a change of formation. Zivo is looking forward to Mr. X

during the Club World Cup, Zivo showed the world his Nerazzurri transformation plan - young players will bring more sharp oppression, the pass-control style of Inzaghi's era is replaced by a more direct offensive model, Inter Milan's formation will also change from 352 to 3421, the strength of the midfield will be weakened to a certain extent, and the front configuration needs to be strengthened.

Inter Milan's current personnel configuration can meet the needs of the 352 formation. If you want to change to 3421, you must add a front midfielder or front midfielder. Lukeman played this role in Atlanta, and he is Mr. X who meets Zivo's requirements. Lukeman can form a frontcourt trident with Marcus Toulam and Lautaro, with Boni, Pio Esposito and Taremi as their substitutes, and Inter Milan will move closer to Atlanta in style.

Pio Esposito and Sucic are still young, and Zivo needs an immediate combat power to support the 3421 formation.

Faced with fierce competition, Inter Milan occupied the "time"

Before the rumors of Inter Milan had an affair with Lukeman, Atletico Madrid and Arsenal also hoped to get the player who scored a hat-trick in the final of the Europa League last season. Atlanta has sold Retge (earning €65 million) and can steadily push Lukeman's transfer next, Inter Milan needs to deal with Atletico Madrid and Arsenal, and opponents from La Liga and Premier League clearly have more desirable financial situations.

Of course, Inter Milan also has their advantages, that is, Lukeman himself does not want to return to the Premier League, nor does he want to take risks in La Liga, and staying in Serie A is his first choice. Inter Milan may only need to give up on the basis of 40 million euros to acquire this talented frontcourt all-rounder.
