Inter wins and convinces like Aleksander Stankovic who already has his eyes on the Premier League. After the important season with Bruges, the feeling remains that he will return to Milan, to decide his future with the Nerazzurri club.
The midfielder born in 2005 will have to try to carve out space for himself as Petar Sucic did this year, but it is not certain that he will be able to accept the role of second choice from Chivu.
Stankovic torna alla base e poi si deciderà il suo futuro
Stankovic is a very strong player, full of talent who could be useful to the team given that there will most likely be a mini revolution in the Inter midfield. Mikhitaryan will leave at the end of the season, Frattesi will most likely be sold and Hakan Calhanoglu has yet to decide his future. In short, a player with his qualities could be really useful in the Romanian coach's game economy.
Occhi dalla Premier sul campione serbo
The midfielder in Belgium with 52 appearances, 9 goals and 5 assists between the championship and the Champions League where, with his performances, he attracted the eyes of half of Europe. The agreements between the clubs included a buy-back clause of 23 million euros for this summer of 2026 and 25 million in the summer of 2027, but Viale della Liberazione have already informed Bruges that the product of the Inter youth team will return to base.
A midfielder with more physical characteristics like Manu Kone or, probably, Curtis Jones will arrive from the market and the spaces for Stankovic will consequently be reduced almost to the bare minimum. However, the risk of seeing others play is not so obvious: just think of Sucic's numbers. The Croatian played 48 games in his first year for the Nerazzurri, as he represents a factor that should not be underestimated. Cristian Chivu is good at bringing in new players and making a precise and linear rotation during the course of a long and demanding season. One of his main merits that led him to win the Double was his ability to maintain high concentration in the locker room. The secret of a winning team is the total involvement of the squad.
Stankovic managed to attract the attention of half of Europe and the player's agent had already received at least two attractive offers with the possibility of spending around 40 million euros for the price tag (both from the Premier League). As always, the will of the young Serbian will be decisive, but Dekan's son could follow in his father's footsteps.
