Report – Inter Milan Earmark Roma Outcast As Replacement For Loan Bound Canada Wingback | OneFootball

Serie A title hopefuls Inter Milan line up a winter swoop for Roma misfit Nicola Zalewski after putting Tajon Buchanan on the market.

According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Nerazzurri could loan the Canada international out in the final days of January.

Buchanan has failed to establish himself as a starter under head coach Simone Inzaghi.

Moreover, a long-term injury hasn’t furthered his cause.

Despite recently returning to the fold, the 25-year-old has found first-team opportunities at a premium.

Therefore, he could depart Giuseppe Meazza in the coming days to get his career back on track.

Inter Milan Line Up Move for Nicola Zalewski to Replace Outgoing Tajon Buchanan

With Carlos Augusto switching from the wing to a more central position, Inzaghi needs cover on the flank.

Federico Dimarco is indispensable on the left, but Inter can’t rely on the Italian to play matches every three days.

As such, the reigning Scudetto holders could offer Zalewski an escape route from the Stadio Olimpico.

Indeed, the Pole is ready to leave Roma after tumbling down the pecking order.

Zalewski was on the verge of joining Turkish giants Galatasaray in September.

However, the deal fell through, resulting in the youngster’s wobble in the capital.
