Preview Inter and Club Brugge: Intense Negotiations for Aleksander Stankovic, Buy-Back Clause at the Core

The Belgian club`s €10 million offer is deemed appropriate by the Nerazzurri, but an agreement is still pending on another crucial aspect of the deal.

MALTA, MALTA - DECEMBER 05: Aleksander Stankovic of FC Internazionale runs with the ball during the International Friendly match between Gzira United and FC Internazionale on December 05, 2022 in Malta, Malta.

Despite being a promising young talent from the academy who has not yet made his senior team debut, Aleksander Stankovic is considered a highly strategic player for Inter. His potential departure, following an excellent loan spell at Lucerne, is therefore being closely monitored by Inter`s transfer market strategists. They opened discussions in recent days without fully closing them. “Ale,” the 19-year-old son of treble-winner Dejan, a talented midfielder, is highly sought after by Club Brugge, but has recently moved slightly further away from Flanders. Emissaries from the Belgian club, who visited Inter`s headquarters in Viale della Liberazione, are prepared to spend around 10 million euros to sign him, aiming to bring him to the club where Ardon Jashari, a future AC Milan player, was until last season.

RIYADH, SAUDI ARABIA - JANUARY 22: Aleksander Stankovic and Federico Dimarco of FC Internazionale celebrate the victory at the end of the Italian EA Sports FC Supercup Final match between SSC Napoli and FC Internazionale at Al-Awwal Stadium on January 22, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

Negotiations Continue with Optimism

The offered sum is considered fitting by Inter, but no progress has been made on the other crucial aspect of the negotiation: the terms and duration of a potential Inter buy-back clause. Club Brugge aims to keep it as high as possible, around 30 million euros, while Inter prefers it to be around 25 million and, crucially, to be exercisable over two years. Specifically, it would be exercisable at the end of both the upcoming 2025-26 season and the 2026-27 season. Further updates between the parties are expected, with reasonable confidence, especially since the departure of the young Serb, who grew up in Interello`s youth academy, is largely factored in by the Nerazzurri management. This would represent the first substantial sale of this transfer window, following three incoming transfers (Sucic, Luis Henrique, and Bonny) plus the redemption of Zalewski.
