Isn't gazetta a reliable source? i hope they are wrong. Stay there at Inter kid we will come looking for you.

It's the media. Reliable doesn't always mean 100% right. GdS also post a lot of rubbish stuff. It's just that the percent of their rubbish is less than the other sources like CdS or Tuttosport.

And it's the transfer window ffs. Everyday there comes out lot of nonsense rumors about this and that player going somewhere. Nothing new here.

This is what Thohir said a while back when asked about if Icardi and Kovacic will remain at the club: "Frequently in the past Inter allowed their young talents to get away, it is something we must limit. We must protect our talent who can potentially become big players."

And here's what the sporting director Piero Ausilio said when Icardi signed an extension: “Inter restarts from Mauro Icardi. We believe in our youngsters like him and Kovacic, and to that we want to add quality and experience. We cant to restart from something different, we’ve built an important base during the last few months with Mancini. We are talking with Handanovic and when the will is there, you work and you find an agreement just as we did with Icardi. Soon we will arrive at a point where everything is done, the most easy thing for me is the renewal.”

Does it look like that Inter is desperate to let go of one of their two biggest talents for such a low amount? Don't think so.

I want Inter to keep Kovacic and build a great team actually. CL is getting boring without italian teams. Same match ups every CL but with italian teams you never know what to expect.

Inter's GM might want to keep Kovacic, but the coach doesn't seem to trust him too much. He's not a starter anymore, in fact it can be said his progress stalled under Mancini. Brozovic is mostly playing instead of him. Kovacic would be stupid to remain in Inter.

Your infos are a bit outdated. Kovacic was benched by Mancini for a time being because he had a series of poor performances. But after that he started to play almost every match and did quite well. He was one of the best performers heading toward the end of the season and I can say the bench time actually did him good. He plays more mature now, getting involved with the teamplay much better than before.

Inter would be insanely stupid to let him go for only 25M.. and kovacic should think hardly about playing in liverpool. It is not the best move for him.

It is much, _much_ better option than staying in Inter. If he can come to Barca, even better.

Inter are a big club and so is Liverpool. Not everything is about trophies and gloryhunting.

Well for starters, Liverpool does have players that can actually score some goals.

That is a bad argument actually. Liverpool doesn't have a player who can score goals consistently. Sturridge is the closest and he is injured most of the time. If he wants to move to PL then i can understand.

Surely not, if liverpool is his dream then i have no problem with it. But as a sporting project liverpool is the one of the least attractive plans among the "big" clubs. If he wants to immediate getaway this makes sense, but why would he need it?

Sure, because Palacio is much better than Sterling.
