Inter Milan are preparing for a defensive overhaul. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the club is preparing for changes in the summer, when several players' contracts expire, taking into account their age and possible departures.
Stefan de Vrij and Francesco Acerbi are 33 and 37 respectively, with their contracts running until June 2026. Matteo Darmian will turn 36 in December and will be free to negotiate with other teams in January.

Top of their wish list is Mark Guehi, the 25-year-old English centre-back from . His contract expires in June and the Nerazzurri are hoping to sign him for free. However, the competition is fierce, with Barcelona, Bayern Munich and Liverpool all interested in the contract.
