Inter are being linked with a move for Manchester City centre-back Manuel Akanji, with the Switzerland and Nigeria international reportedly valued at around €18.00m.
The 30-year-old, whose current situation at City could yet see him move on before or after any contract decision, is the subject of transfer speculation suggesting a switch from the Premier League champions to Serie A side Inter. The probability of the transfer remains unclear, listed simply as “?” in the latest reports, with no confirmation yet of whether the deal would be a permanent transfer or potentially a free-agent move should his contract status change.
Akanji, born on 19 July 1995 in Wiesendangen and standing at 1.88m, is a right-footed centre-back who has established himself at the highest level of European football. Comfortable in the heart of defence and known for his composure in possession, he has represented both Swiss and Nigerian heritage through his dual nationality.
Data from Transfermarkt sets his current market value at €18.00m, a figure that provides a benchmark for any negotiations between City and Inter. With no contract expiry date specified in the latest listing, his future remains open to interpretation, fuelling talk that he could either command a fee this summer or, if circumstances align, move as a free agent once any deal with City runs its course.
There are no confirmed recent match details or specific performance statistics included in the latest update, but his role for club and country in recent seasons has underlined his reputation as a reliable top-flight defender.
If a move to Inter does materialise, a fresh chapter in Serie A could further shape Akanji’s career, offering him the chance to enhance his reputation on a new stage and test himself in a different tactical environment at the peak of his playing years.
