Inter Milan and Marseille are negotiating terms on a deal for teenage attacking midfielder Valentin Carboni.
This according to today’s print edition of Turin-based newspaper Tuttosport, via FCInterNews. They report that the transfer should be a paid loan with a purchase option and a buyback clause.
This summer, Marseille have been perhaps the club with the strongest interest in Carboni.
The Ligue 1 team have been in talks with Inter for several weeks.
Carboni’s future has always been one of the major question marks at Inter this summer transfer window. The 19-year-old could either leave on a permanent basis, or on another loan.
And since former Brighton and Hove Albion and Sassuolo coach De Zerbi’s arrival, Marseille have earmarked a deal for Carboni as one of their priorities for the summer.
In the meantime, however, Marseille have completed a deal to sign English forward Greenwood.
The French club have confirmed the arrival of the controversial Englishman in a deal worth more than €30 million.
Naturally, that is a big outlay for Marseille.
And this raises the question of how much more the Ligue 1 side will be able to invest this summer.
However, Marseille have not dropped their interest in Carboni.
And reportedly, the teenager has pushed for the move. He believes that a transfer to Marseille would be the right next step for him.
Therefore, Inter and Marseille have been trying to work out a formula for a transfer that satisfies both clubs.
According to Tuttosport, the deal should be an initial paid loan move.
Then, there will be a purchase option in favour of Marseille. They can sign Carboni on a permanent basis for €35-36 million at the end of the loan deal.
However, Inter will have the option to sign Carboni right back.
This would take a payment of €4-5 million over what Marseille would pay for the 19-year-old.
