Inter Milan and Olympique Marseille are finalizing the transfer details for Valentín Carboni, a promising 19-year-old Argentine attacking midfielder. The clubs are discussing either a loan with a purchase option or a permanent transfer that includes a buyback clause for Inter Milan. Inter’s president, Marotta, emphasized that Carboni will remain under contract and under their control, ensuring future options for the player remain open.
Carboni’s Career and Potential Impact
Valentín Carboni, born on March 5, 2005, has been part of Inter Milan’s youth setup. Standing at 1.85 meters, Carboni has shown promising skills as an attacking midfielder. Despite limited senior team appearances due to his young age, his loan to Monza last season provided him with valuable first-team experience. This development period has increased his attractiveness to other clubs, including Olympique Marseille, who have made him a major target this transfer window.
Financial and Strategic Considerations
The potential transfer fee for a permanent move is reportedly between €35-40 million. However, Inter Milan’s broader transfer strategy remains unaffected by this deal. The club continues to prioritize signing a left-sided defender to support Alessandro Bastoni, with Nantes defender Nathan Zeze being a potential target. Marseille, on the other hand, looks to strengthen their squad further after recently signing Mason Greenwood from Manchester United. This strategic move for Carboni indicates Marseille’s ambition to enhance their midfield capabilities significantly.
