Inter Milan reportedly hope Tajon Buchanan could use his influence on Jonathan David to convince the Lille ace to move to Giuseppe Meazza.
According to Tuttosport via FCInterNews, the defending Serie A champions see the former Club Brugge wingback as a potential catalyst to win a fierce race for David’s signature.
Soon to be out of contract at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy, Jonathan David is among the most sought-after forwards in the market.
In addition to Inter, AC Milan and Juventus have developed a genuine interest in the prolific goalscorer.
However, foreign competition looks even more intimidating.
Starting with La Liga heavyweights Barcelona, numerous European powerhouses have laid their eyes on David.
But Inter president Beppe Marotta is reluctant to let this market opportunity slip through his grasp.
One of Europe’s finest negotiators will use every tool at his disposal to persuade David to choose the Nerazzurri.
Marotta may have an ace up his sleeve.
Tajon Buchanan and David share the dressing room on the national team.
Indeed, the Canadians are close friends, with Inter hoping to use that relationship to their advantage.
Piero Ausilio has already held talks with David’s agent, Nick Mavromaras.
As it turns out, the 24-year-old asks for a €6 million net salary per season.
However, Inter will gladly fork out that figure if they’ve lost Marcus Thuram.
Closely followed by Manchester United, Liverpool, and Paris Saint-Germain, Thuram’s future in Italy hangs in the balance.
Despite the Frenchman’s recent proclamation of love for the San Siro, Inter cannot afford to rest easy.
David would be a massive coup for the Scudetto holders if they can win the race for his signature.
Thuram’s future at Meazza could also influence David’s decision.
Indeed, the latter would unlikely accept a transfer, only to play second fiddle.
