Inter's sporting director, Piero Ausilio, was recently in London for Champions League matches and reportedly held a series of meetings. While in England, Ausilio inquired again about Chelsea midfielder Andrey Santos, who is 21 years old. A previous attempt to sign the Brazilian player last summer was not successful due to Chelsea's high demands.
The management at Inter continues to appreciate Santos, and there is a belief that the player's difficulty in securing a regular starting position in the Premier League could lead to more favorable circumstances for a transfer at the end of the season. Santos has 4 caps for Brazil, joined Chelsea in January 2023, and his contract is valid until 2030. He has made 22 Premier League appearances during the 2025/2026 season. His current market value is listed by Transfermarkt as €45.00m. In addition to Inter, Juventus and Manchester United have also recently been linked with the midfielder.
