Inter have been moving quickly to bring in Gosens. Tuesday’s meeting in Milan between Inter’s chiefs and Atalanta CEO Luca Percassi unlocked the deal and Gosens is now ready to join Inter. He is now currently out of action with a thigh injury and played his last Serie A match on September 25 and has only made eight appearances across all competitions this season.
The Germany international has been one of the best full-backs in Serie A over the last few seasons. Gosens, Achraf Hakimi and Theo Hernandez are the only defenders to have contributed to at least nine goals in the opening 21 Serie A games in the last 15 years.
