6 players Inter Milan should sell during the summer transfer window
By John Vaccaro
Radja Nainggolan
I’ll keep this one short because I don’t think there’s any debate to be had here. Radja Nainggolan’s first season at Inter wasn’t the greatest and his return to Cagliari seems to have brought the best back out of him. He’s happy back at Cagliari and Inter should just admit defeat on his signing.
If they can make back most of what they spent on him (minus the cost of giving up one of Italy’s most promising young players) then it will at least help ease the pain of how disappointing Nainggolan’s signing has been.
Antonio Candreva
Antonio Candreva has had an up and down last few years at Inter. He went from starting nearly every Serie A match during his first two years with the club to making only 5 league starts last season, to starting 16 matches so far this season. Even though he has gotten back to being a regular starter this year in Antonio Conte’s system, I think it’s time for Inter to move on from the ageing Italian.
At 33 years old, it’s hard to believe that Candreva will be able to contribute much longer at Inter Milan and in my opinion, the right side of their squad is one of the few areas that they actually need to address this summer. To improve in this area, they’ll need to sell one of the two players they used on the right side this season and Candreva seems like the most likely candidate.
Danilo D’Ambrosio is a little bit younger and has the added benefit of being able to play on both wings and at center back. That should mean that Candreva will be playing somewhere else next season.
Candreva’s time as a contributor for a top club is running out and Candreva should let that time run down while getting whatever remaining value they can out of him.
