Reports in Italy claim that Inter are on the verge of selling three players on permanent transfers, which should bring a financial boost of around €30m.
It is no secret that Inter are looking to strengthen their squad after winning both the Scudetto and the Coppa Italia under Cristian Chivu in 2025-26: Marco Palestra and Oumar Solet among the Nerazzurri’s current leading targets.
However, a summer of spending still depends on a number of players being moved on first, and three players are already on their way out of San Siro according to the latest updates.
Inter to bring in €30m from Dumfries, Esposito and Akinsanmiro
The most significant is right wing-back Denzel Dumfries, who is expected to join Real Madrid for a fee of just €20m.
The Netherlands international won two league titles, three Coppa Italia medals, three from the Supercoppa Italiana and made two Champions League finals during his five years in Italy, but had a release clause in his contract, which has been activated.
Nerazzurri sporting director Piero Ausilio has recently confirmed that the deal is now only missing a formal announcement: “I think it’s now basically official that Dumfries, a great player who had a release clause, will leave.”
According to updates from Sky Sport Italia and Calciomercato.com, Inter will also receive a further €6m from the imminent sale of Ebenezer Akinsanmiro to Pisa, who finished the 2025-26 Serie A season in 20th place.
Akinsanmiro spent the season on loan with Pisa and they had an option to make the 21-year-old’s move permanent, but Inter will reportedly have an option to buy the Nigeria international back for a fee of €7.5m.
Additionally, Thursday’s reports claim that Cagliari will trigger their option to buy Sebastiano Esposito for a fee of €4m. It is understood that Inter will have a significant sell-on clause of around 40-50%.
