The Nerazzurri want to finalize a pre-contract agreement with the salernitana as soon as possible, according to Italian news source FCInter1908, which reports this.
The connections between Zielinski and Inter are by now well known.
By the conclusion of the current campaign, the Polish international’s contract with Napoli will expire. June of next year is when his contract expires.
Neither has there been any indication that an extension with the Partenopei has been agreed upon.
There have been talks with the 29-year-old former Empoli and Udinese midfielder.
But there hasn’t been very much progress towards a new deal.
And in the meantime, other clubs have become very aware of Zielinski’s contract situation.
The likes of Juventus and West Ham United reportedly consider the Pole a target. But it is Inter who have most strongly registered interest in Zielinski’s signature.
The Nerazzurri’s propensity to target free transfer signings is a major pillar of their transfer strategy under the guidance of Beppe Marotta.
And a player of Zielinski’s quality and Serie A experience in his prime would certainly represent a major coup in this respect.
