Inter close to Zukanovic deal
By Football Italia staff
Inter are reportedly close to finalising a deal for Chievo full-back Ervin Zukanovic to arrive at San Siro this summer.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, the Bosnian defender has been tracked for over a year by Nerazzurri sporting director Piero Ausilio and chief scout Massimiliano Ausilio.
The 28-year-old, who can play either in central defence or as a left-back, is on loan at the Flying Donkeys from Belgian side Gent.
According to the report, Chievo are willing to take the option to buy Zukanovic at the end of his loan for 1 million in order to then sell him on to Inter for a fee of around 3.5 million.
The newspaper also suggested that the probable arrival of the Bosnian international could put the futures of Juan Jesus and Yuto Nagatomo in doubt.
Zukanovic has made 26 Serie A appearances for the Gialloblu this season, scoring two goals and making two assists.
