Inter swoop for Camoranesi?
Friday 29 September, 2006
Inter’s midfield crisis could push them back on to the market in January with a bid for Juventus’s Mauro Camoranesi.
The Nerazzurri are still without the injured Esteban Cambiasso, Dejan Stankovic and Alvaro Recoba, while Patrick Vieira has picked up bans in Serie A and the Champions League.
Olivier Dacourt is the only central midfielder at Roberto Mancini’s disposal for this weekend’s match at Cagliari.
“These bans and injuries are a serious problem and have affected our form,” confessed Mancio after the 2-0 Champions League defeat to Bayern Munich midweek.
“Unfortunately, the squad has shrunk lately and we have few options to choose from. Inevitably, tiredness will set in. We’ll have to grit our teeth and try to win at Cagliari, even if we don’t play well.”
They’re likely to dive back into the transfer market in the January window and the prime candidate is Camoranesi.
The Italo-Argentine midfielder sensationaly asks to be transfered while playing today in the Serie B match between Piacenza and Juventus.
He had already been linked to Inter in the summer, but the move never materialised.
It has been mentioned that Telecom Italia stole the microphone to the ground speakers and warned Camoranesi about staying with Juve.
