Earlier on Friday, we covered an interview from Gazzetta dello Sport with Giuseppe Bergomi, who was urging Inter Milan to not try and buy Konstantinos Mavropanos from West Ham United and focus on developing Yann Bisseck instead.
The reason for that was because the same newspaper were suggesting that the Hammers centre-back, who struggled to get a lot of Premier League action in the first half of the season, is a target for the Serie A club as they look to bolster their defence this summer.
The interest, as it’s recalled, dates back to when the Greek defender was at VfB Stuttgart, before West Ham bought him for €20m.
Piero Ausilio, the man who oversees transfers at Inter, has been following for a while, and received ‘excellent’ reports about the 26-year-old during his time in Germany.
It’s explained he is still on Inter’s ‘radar’ to this day, which is always turned one because market opportunities for the Serie A side are ‘constantly being updated’.
Whether West Ham would be willing to part ways with their player a year after signing him remains to be seen, but David Moyes’ decision to play him more in the league since December suggests they would be reluctant.
