Inter is one of several clubs interested in 18-year-old Dutch defender Ruud Nijstad from Twente. Roma is closely monitoring the player, who has also drawn interest from Bayern Munich, Barcelona, and Borussia Dortmund. Nijstad's market value has increased to approximately eight million euros following his consistent development in recent games. His contract with the Dutch club is valid until 2027, and Twente will need to decide whether to sell him in the upcoming summer transfer window or renew his contract. He is a Netherlands U18 international, for which he has 6 caps and 1 goal, and has made 15 appearances and provided 1 assist in the Eredivisie this season. His valuation increased significantly from a reported €700,000 in January 2026. Some reports in February 2026 suggested Twente was asking for as much as ten million euros for the player.
