STRUGGLING

Inter Milan’s latest victory in the Serie A was during their match against Ac.Milan as they played on December 22 and from there on out they have only been able on getting negative results. Suffering losses against Lazio and Udinese as well as having to settle to a 1-1 draw against Chievo Verona.

Even though it’s expected that the new owner of the club Erick Thohir will start investing on the club with fresh signings, the Indonesian billionaire has already stated that in order for him to sign new players into the team they will have to offload some of their own before bringing in new ones.

Fredy Guarin is considered to be one of the best midfielders that Inter Milan has to offer at the moment but the Colombian player is being heavily linked with a move away from the Italian club as many other top European clubs are interested in signing him.

The midfield and defence zone of Inter Milan have been the most critized in this season with Jonathan and Yuto Nagatomo are proving their worth at the wing back positions but the same cannot be said for Ranocchia and Juan Jesus who have hit rough patches and cannot seem to understand the schemes that Walter Mazzarri is trying to implement in Inter Milan.

Moving up into the midfielders, Esteban Cambiasso is nearing the end of his career and a replacement would be a wise decision for them to make. Daniele de Rossi is easily one of the best defensive midfielders in the Serie A and a substantial offer from Erick Thohir can tempt As.Roma on selling the Italian midfielder.

When Erick Thohir was questioned about the recent struggles that Inter Milan was going through he responded by saying that the club is entering a ‘’period of transition’’

“We are now entering a period of transition,” Thohir said.

“Ideally, the average player should be aged between 24 and 26 years. This does not mean that the heroes of the 2010 treble are not appreciated, but it is clear that even younger players must be incorporated into the squad.
