Bayern Munich defender offered to Inter Milan
Few players will be playing their final few games for Bayern Munich in the coming weeks. Jerome Boateng is one of the star names that will be leaving the club in the summer. The German defender will be leaving on a free transfer since his contract comes to an end.
Boateng will not have a lack of suitors due to his good form for Die Roten in the past 18 months. Die Roten confirmed earlier in April that Boateng will not be getting a new contract. The 32-year-old defender will now start talking to interested clubs. Inter Milan is reportedly the first club that has been given the option to sign Boateng by his agent, Fali Ramadani.
According to FcInterNews.it, Ramadani has proposed Boateng as a new signing for Inter Milan. This report does insist that wages could be an issue to make this transfer happen. The German defender may have to reduce his wage demands that currently stand at €4 million per season.
This is not the first time Boateng has been linked with Inter Milan. When he was on the fringes of the first-team squad under Niko Kovac two years ago, Inter Milan’s name had popped up. However, there was never a concrete bid for him to move to Serie A.
