Antonio Conte Can Form Lukaku-Sanchez’s Deadly Duet at Inter Milan

DBasia.news –  Inter Milan are getting closer to getting Manchester United striker Alexis Sanchez. Inter could pair Sanchez with his former teammate, Romelu Lukaku.

Previously, Inter Milan had secured Romelu Lukaku from Manchester United. The former Everton player came in with a fee of 65 million euros. Lukaku is expected to be able to replace the role of Mauro Icardi who is on the team’s selling list. 

Inter Milan did not stop targeting Manchester United players. After Lukaku, the Nerazzurri are reportedly in the final stages of borrowing Alexis Sanchez.

Inter Milan will make long-term loans (two seasons) with a redemption option (15 million euros). Also, Inter will pay part of the salary of the former Udinese player.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is reported to have given the green light related to the transfer. Because Sanchez has not entered his plans for the 2019-2020 season.

“Okay, there are still a few weeks ahead of the closing of the transfer market and there are still opportunities. Some clubs are interested in Alexis Sanchez. So, we’ll see the results,” Solskjaer said as reported by Sky Sports.

The presence of Alexis Sanchez in the Inter Milan forward will provide good depth to the squad for Antonio Conte. Moreover, La Beneamata failed to get an AS Roma striker, Edin Dzeko.

At present, Inter only has three attackers namely Romelu Lukaku, Sebastiano Esposito, and Lautaro Martinez. Meanwhile, Mauro Icardi’s whereabouts are no longer considered.

Romelu Lukaku and Alexis Sanchez can make Inter Milan sharper. Because the two players came with a blue report card in the Premier League. 

Until now, Romelu Lukaku has been involved (goals plus assists ) in 105 goals in the Premier League. Meanwhile, Alexis Sanchez involved 94 goals.

That number makes Lukaku and Sanchez as two of the best foreign players (goals plus assists) in the Premier League since the 2014-2015 season. Lukaku and Sanchez only lost to Sergio Aguero (141), Eden Hazard (98), and Christian Eriksen (94).

Inter Milan will start Serie A 2019-2020 by entertaining Lecce, at the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, Monday (8/26) local time or early Tuesday morning Western Indonesian Time.
