Inter still seeks to close a deal for Romelu Lukaku, as Manchester United end negotiations for Argentinian attacking midfielder Paulo Dybala. Antonio Conte still believes that a deal could still be reached, after Manchester United rejected a possible swap deal with Serie A giants Juventus.
Romelu Lukaku’s signature has been a top priority for Inter Milan throughout the summer with the Nerazzurri's new boss Antonio Conte looking to sign the striker on multiple occasions. But negotiations between the two clubs have failed to reach come to a conclusive agreement, as Inter were unable to match Manchester United's asking price for Lukaku.
A move for Juventus seemed more likely, as the Vecchia Signora was willing to involve Paulo Dybala in a swap deal to guarantee Lukaku, but negotiations failed. Manchester United ended the talks with the Argentinian attacker, after learning that the 25-year-old wanted wages matching those of Alexis Sanchez and Paul Pogba to join the club.
Red Devils boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has already iterated that he only wants players who want to join the club, and this has opened an opportunity for Inter to renew their interest for the powerful striker. The transfer window for the Premier League clubs close at 17:00 local time on Thursday, and Lukaku is still expected to leave Old Trafford. This makes the next few days crucial to see where the 26-year-old will play next season.
