Inter is fighting on three fronts for trophies this season, but they’re also battling off the pitch — in the transfer market. Although the June transfer window is still some way off, the Nerazzurri are already actively working on strengthening their squad, and their top target is Brazilian attacker Luis Henrique from Marseille. According to French media reports this morning, Inter has reached an agreement with the Brazilian after several weeks of negotiations and testing the waters. The contract would run until 2030.🚨 BREAKING: #Inter has reached a ‘verbal agreement’ with Olympique Marseille fullback, Luis Henrique, for a contract until 2030. 🇧🇷[@footmercato via @Santi_J_FM] pic.twitter.com/qVxtGjRNKd— Inter Xtra (@Inter_Xtra) April 21, 2025 Now comes the tougher part — agreeing on a transfer fee with the French club. Olympique Marseille is demanding 35 million euros, while Inter’s initial offer is 24 million fixed plus four million in bonuses. All signs point to a prolonged back-and-forth between the clubs over the next few weeks, potentially ending in a compromise. That is, unless a third club steps in to derail Inter’s plans. Bayern Munich has been mentioned as a possible suitor for Luis Henrique.Bayern coach watched his next target in FranceThe Brazilian is a versatile attacking player who can play on both wings, as an attacking midfielder, or even as a central striker. However, Inter’s plan is to deploy him as a right wing-back in their 3-5-2 system. That position is currently held by the untouchable Denzel Dumfries, who recently extended his contract, while the backup option is veteran Matteo Darmian, whom coach Simone Inzaghi would prefer to use in a back three going forward.Greenwood’s brace calms the storm in MarseilleInter hopes to complete the transfer of the 23-year-old Brazilian by the end of May, so he can be part of the squad for the FIFA Club World Cup in the United States. Henrique joined Marseille from Botafogo in September 2020 for nine million euros and has registered nine goals and eight assists this season. Let’s not forget, Inter has already wrapped up a future signing — Croatian midfielder Petar Sucic from Dinamo Zagreb for 12 million, who is also expected to be included in the squad for the Club World Cup.##NAJAVA_MECA_8877193##
