Inter Milan have expressed strong interest in Moroccan international Brahim Diaz as the Serie A giants begin rebuilding their squad following a bruising Champions League final loss to Paris Saint-Germain.
According to Italian outlet Spaziointer, Inter are monitoring Diaz closely as they look to bolster their creative midfield options.
The Real Madrid attacking midfielder, who previously enjoyed a successful loan spell with AC Milan, is reportedly on the shortlist at the San Siro.
Diaz, who recently represented Morocco after switching international allegiance from Spain, may be open to a move back to Italy, especially with concerns growing over his long-term future at the Santiago Bernabéu.
While he played a rotational role under Carlo Ancelotti this past season, the arrival of new manager Xabi Alonso has cast further uncertainty over Diaz’s position in the squad.
The report claims Alonso is actively targeting reinforcements in Diaz’s preferred attacking midfield role, a development that could significantly limit the Moroccan’s minutes in the coming campaign.
With increased competition looming, the opportunity for a more central role in Simone Inzaghi’s setup may prove tempting for the 24-year-old.
“Brahim Diaz is of interest to the Italian club,” noted Spaziointer, highlighting the tactical reshuffling likely to occur at Real Madrid and the appeal Diaz holds for Inter’s recruitment team.
The Nerazzurri, who are determined to bounce back from their European disappointment, are expected to make several key signings this summer—and Diaz’s name has risen to prominence in internal discussions.
The Moroccan midfielder, known for his flair, close control, and ability to unlock tight defences, would offer Inter additional dynamism and depth in the final third.
His familiarity with Serie A, thanks to his spell with AC Milan, adds to his appeal, as Inter look to add experienced yet versatile players capable of impacting games at the highest level.
As the summer window nears, Diaz’s situation at Madrid will likely attract further scrutiny, with Inter Milan prepared to act should a path to the Moroccan’s departure become clearer.
For now, the playmaker remains a name high on Inter’s agenda—a potential addition who could help ignite a fresh era at the club.
