Inter Step Up Efforts to Sign Spezia Prodigy Bertola

Inter have accelerated their interest in Nicolò Bertola, one of the brightest Serie B prospects, ahead of a likely winter chase. Their director Dario Baccin recently met with Spezia exec Stefano Melissano to take stock on the defender, Il Secolo XIX reports (via Tribuna).

The Aquilotti are in a precarious spot because the contract of the starlet runs out in June. Their efforts to prolong it, perhaps by inserting a low release clause, have been in vain so far. They’d have no alternative but to sell him in January without progress.

Inter seem willing to help Spezia and acquire Bertola in the next window rather than wait to capture him for free. The two sides are on excellent terms. The Nerazzurri would get a discount on his valuation.

The two outfits will meet again in late Decembe. The Scudetto holders have a few youngsters who could interest the counterparty, for instance, Alessandro Fontanarosa, Luca Di Maggio, Zinho Vanheusden, Franco Carboni, and Issiaka Kamate. Even if they purchased the budding center-back, he’d stay at Spezia on loan. They sit in third position in the standings.

Our Take on Inter and Bertola

He’s a safe prospect and would perfectly fit their supposed goal of getting younger. They have the inside track, but it remains to be seen whether some other sides would bring him to Serie A pronto will materialize and potentially outbid them in January. His contractual status is very juicy for his suitors. Some might not be so scrupulous toward Spezia.
