Inter interested in a reported deal for Teemu Pukki – but is it realistic?

Reports from Calcio Mercato say that Finnish striker Teemu Pukki is a reported target for Italian giants Inter Milan this January.

After failing to impress at the top level with both Schalke and Sevilla, Pukki finally found his clinical touch with Norwich, since joining on a free last season.

This season, he has carried on with his great form already bagging six goals and assisting on two occasions.

With such an impressive record he has gained interest from former European champions Inter Milan.

Inter’s new manager, Antonio Conte shew his ruthlessness side last summer transfer listing many of their top players including striker Mauro Icardi who joined Paris Saint Germain.

To fill the void Romelu Lukaku was signed from Manchester United,  but a back up is required and Pukki has been identified as perfect for that role.

Inter believe they could reportedly tempt him to Lombardy, as the striker could see this as his last chance to play at the top level. But with Pukki reportedly loving life in Norfolk and Norwich seemingly reluctant to sell, the Italian side will have to battle to get his signature.

This seems unlikely to us considering Pukki is twenty-nine-years-old and hasn’t exactly impressed earlier in his career.

We believe that Inter could find a younger player instead of Pukki which would suit the way that they’re trying to go at the moment.

If he was to make the move to the San Siro though, we have no doubt that Pukki will continue he great scoring form if he did get the chances.
