Inter Milan considers Ivan Perisic return as wing-back option
Summary

Inter Milan is contemplating a return for Ivan Perisic, 37, as a solution for their wing-back vacancy following Matteo Darmian's departure. The club's summer search has faced challenges, with alternative targets falling short on technical or financial grounds. Negotiations with Tottenham for Cristian Romero are ongoing, but Perisic's familiarity with the team and cost-effectiveness make him a viable candidate. The proposed plan involves Perisic providing experienced cover as the club develops younger players on the right flank.
