According to L'Interista, Inter continues to closely follow Chris Richards of Crystal Palace. The player is highly regarded by Cristian Chivu, and the club management is working to satisfy him. Inter is considering signing Chris Richards in January, and if that is not possible, an attempt will be made to sign him next summer. The report adds that he would be available on a free transfer at that time without a contract renewal. It is also noted that Chris Richards's contract expires in 2027, which would mean an expense that is not excessively high if Crystal Palace are open to selling him.

According to Tuttomercato, Inter has a continued interest in Chris Richards from Crystal Palace. The club's sporting director, Dario Baccin, continues to follow the player. Chris Richards' contract with Crystal Palace expires in June 2027, which could influence the terms of a potential deal.

As part of its strategy to monitor players with contracts expiring in 2027, Inter is monitoring Crystal Palace's 26-year-old United States defender Chris Richards. Richards, who has 40 caps and 3 goals for the USA, joined his current club in July 2022. His current market value is €28.00m, according to Transfermarkt.
