Inter Milan top defensive target Giovanni Leoni has reportedly drawn interest from the Premier League.
According to Sport Mediaset via FCInterNews, Parma are keen to keep the 18-year-old for another season.
However, Giovanni Leoni is among Europe’s most in-demand young center-backs.
Therefore, his departure is only a matter of time.
Meanwhile, Inter have identified the Italian prodigy as a top priority to reinforce their backline.
Furthermore, Cristian Chivu wants to work with Leoni again after launching his career at Stadio Ennio Tardini.
Inter Milan Face Premier League Competition for Giovanni Leoni
While the report doesn’t name a specific club, new champions Liverpool have recently emerged as potential suitors.
Indeed, Arne Slot is in the market for a new central defender after offloading Jarell Quansah to Bayer Leverkusen.
However, Inter remain in the driver’s seat, as the player prefers a reunion with Chivu.
On the other hand, Parma are ready to sell their most prized asset for €40 million.
Otherwise, they won’t consider a sale, with the Crusaders aiming to keep Leoni at Tardini next season.
