"There are those who say no" and those who wait: from Asllani to Buchanan, all of Inter's redundancies.

Some are turning down all the options, some are coveted by several clubs but clearly not enough, and another is tied to the club by a huge salary that weighs heavily on the budget. And Inter can do nothing but wait for the remaining surplus players to be resolved, perhaps by slightly lowering their demands. After all, four players who would be relegated to supporting roles next year could rain down millions that can be instantly reinvested in various transfer targets. And that's the goal of the Nerazzurri management.

Among the thorniest cases is the Iranian, perhaps the biggest disappointment of all. Having arrived in Milan last summer after excellent seasons with Porto, Taremi has never managed to establish himself: very few goals, a sense of being far away, and a hefty salary of €3 million net per season until 2027. This is why it will be harder to sell him. But there's no shortage of admirers: Besiktas and Leeds are currently pursuing him, more than other clubs. Inter would gladly let him leave even for free, having arrived after his contract with Porto expired. The Nerazzurri management's goal is clear: to rid themselves of a salary that feels like a burden, especially given what they've seen on the pitch.

In his case, Inter are annoyed. Real Betis Sevilla had knocked on the club's door with an offer that was satisfactory for everyone, but Asllani turned it down. The Albanian is turning a deaf ear and refusing to hear offers from abroad; his goal is to continue his journey in Serie A. But in Italy, few clubs would match Inter's asking price, set at around €15 million.

First Villarreal, then Sassuolo, then Villarreal again. And now who knows? The Canadian winger, out of Inter's technical and corporate plans, has never managed to establish himself with the Nerazzurri, partly due to a fractured tibia that has affected his performances. A few weeks ago, he was on the verge of joining the Neroverdi, but then the arrival of the Spanish club—who want him back after the last six months spent on loan in La Liga—delayed his departure. Now, everything is wide open again. But he certainly won't be part of the Nerazzurri squad next year.

For every Esposito who comes in, there's another Esposito who leaves: Pio, as he already demonstrated during Inter's Club World Cup, will be a valuable addition next season, and Chivu is banking heavily on him. The situation is different for his brother Sebastiano, who will certainly leave: Cagliari and Fiorentina are keeping an eye on the former Empoli striker, but there's also the possibility that his contract could be used to lower the price of a transfer target (Parma's Leoni). Another detail not to be underestimated is Seba's contract, which expires next June: this is why Inter won't be able to capitalize on his departure.
