Inter Milan is one of the clubs most advanced in its interest in 17-year-old Moroccan and Belgian player Moncef Zekri. Inter Milan scouts have monitored the KV Mechelen player during the Belgian championship and African youth competitions, identifying him as a suitable player for their left wing-back position. However, Inter faces significant competition, as Bayer Leverkusen and RB Leipzig are also interested. The player reportedly has a preference for a move to the Bundesliga. Ajax Amsterdam and PSV Eindhoven are also observing the situation.
Despite the growing interest, sources indicate that no official offer has yet been made, with the matter still at the observation and evaluation stage. A source close to the situation estimates Zekri's current value at approximately 4 million euros, but KV Mechelen has set a starting price of a minimum of 7 million euros, which could be supplemented by 2 million euros in performance-related bonuses. The potential entry of Premier League clubs into the competition for the player could start a competitive bidding process for Zekri, who is seen as an important talent for the 2026 summer transfer market. Zekri has 20 caps for Morocco's U17 team, has made 16 appearances in the Jupiler Pro League this season, and his contract with KV Mechelen is valid until June 2028.
