Inter has intensified its pursuit of the 22-year-old French midfielder Andy Diouf following Roma's decision not to pursue Manu Koné. Inter's management has pinpointed Diouf as a potential signing and has initiated discussions with Lens, who had previously turned down offers approximately worth 20 million euros, including a bid from Napoli. A preliminary agreement has reportedly been reached, with the transfer expected to finalize at 25 million euros, inclusive of bonuses. Diouf, who remains under contract with the French club until 2028, has also garnered interest from German teams RB Leipzig and VfB Stuttgart. According to Transfermarkt, his market value is estimated at €15 million.
