Inter lock talent Esposito down to new contract until 2030 | OneFootball

Inter have reportedly locked down Francesco Pio Esposito for the future by getting the striker, on loan at Spezia, to sign a new contract to 2030.

The 19-year-old came up through the Nerazzurri youth academy and was sent to Spezia on a two-year loan spell in the summer of 2023.

It has been a remarkable campaign for him, scoring 14 goals in just 27 Serie B appearances, plus one assist.

He is also flourishing with the Italy Under-21 side, contributing seven goals and three assists in 11 caps at this level.

Esposito attracted interest with fine form

Inter have taken note, as well as the interest from Manchester United, Leicester City and more.

According to reports from Matteo Moretto, Esposito has now signed a new contract with Inter to June 2030 that will raise his salary to just over €1m per season.

It remains to be seen whether he will be part of the Inter squad for the 2025-26 campaign or go on loan to a Serie A club to gain more experience.

This is a successful football family, because brother Sebastiano plays for Empoli and another sibling Salvatore is his teammate at Spezia.
