Serie A Transfer Rumors: Thiago Motta Likely Leaving Inter For PSG

Plus, he’ll forever remain infamous for his ability to be flagged for offside.

Given that sort of return for so young a player, it’s hardly a surprise that Genoa were willing to pay 4M for half of his rights. The biggest question around this transfer revolves around where Immobile ends up starting in February. If Genoa plan to use him immediately, Pescara, who are currently in a three-way battle with Sassuolo and Torino for first place in Serie B, could see themselves fall out of the promotion race. Could Juventus have made it easier for Torino to jump back up to the top flight?

“I am happy to be a new player of Inter,” Guarin told Sky Sport Italia on Monday. “But I will wait for tomorrow to vocalize all my happiness.”

Either way, Inter have been hot for the Slovakian midfielder for quite some time now, with many believing Kucka would leave in the summer. Kucka has had an up-and-down season at Genoa, almost appearing out of favor under Alberto Malesani. But the 24-year-old still has time on his side, and apparently the nerazzurri believe they’ll be the ones to find his consistency of form. Either that, or they simply wish to buy up all the midfielders in the world. It’s gotta be one or the other.

With just a few hours to go until the transfer window slams shut, it won’t be long until we know where the cards fall in this absurd shuffle.

With the rossazzurri leaking goals faster than a generic diaper on a newborn, they need all the help they can get at the back. But will Motta be more a hindrance than a help?

Said Sevilla:

The deal is believed to be a season-long loan followed by a €10M option to purchase in the summer. Caceres has made 39 appearances for Sevilla since his €3M buy from Barcelona, scoring twice in La Liga.

Since City are now refusing to continue to pay Tevez’s salary, they’re not really under any pressure to get rid of him, and if they don’t get the money they want for their former captain, one suspects that they’d be more than happy to destroy his career instead. The moral of the story is that you should never refuse to play.

If you think about it, it makes perfect sense. There’s no big-name star from Italy playing in North America at the moment. What better way to attract new fans than to snap up the captain of Italy’s biggest side? No wonder the amount Montreal is rumored to be offering is $5m per year.

President Massimo Moratti admits that there’s been contact with City, and now that a move to Milan is not guaranteed, hopes to start discussions after Sunday’s Derby Della Madonnina. But will Inter be able to convince Tevez? Milan are convinced the Argentine wants a move to their side of town, but after four months of not playing at City, it seems likely he’ll go wherever he’ll find a place in the squad.

One thing is nearly certain: come the end of January, Carlitos will be away from Manchester. But whether it will be to Milan, Inter, or even PSG remains to be seen.
