Albert Gudmundsson has often been linked to Inter, but Napoli and Juventus are moving early and with determination to beat them to the punch. At this stage, the Azzurri have laid the most groundwork to acquire him, Sky informs.

The Partenopei have reached out to Genoa and the player’s camp to set up the deal. However, he’s not the only option to bolster their attack. Their transfer market strategies will fully take shape once they appoint a new coach.

Juventus are keen on Gudmundsson as well and intend to tussle with Napoli. The Bianconeri are ready to put Fabio Miretti and Enzo Barrenechea on the table. The counterparty is particularly interested in the former, whom they might pursue regardless.

If both sides match Genoa’s request, it’ll be up to the attack to decide where to go. He has been tipped to prefer a move to the Premier League, but no English has tracked him until this point. He stated he wouldn’t mind continuing in Serie A in a recent interview.

Our Take on Gudmundsson, Napoli, and Juventus

He’d help any side thanks to his versatility, but, unless there’s something in the works concerning Khvicha Kvaratshkelia, the last thing the Azzurri need is another pacey attacker. Instead, the Old Lady does necessitate forwards as they are unlikely to stick with 3-5-2. He’d be just what the doctor ordered for Inter, but they won’t be able to move for him until July since his arrival depends on other moves.
