This summer, Juventus may have competition in their pursuit of Mario Hermoso, as Inter Milan has surfaced as a possible buyer for the defender. Hermoso's contract with Atletico Madrid is about to expire, and the Spanish team is finding it harder and harder to hold onto him. Juventus has been after Hermoso for some months and seems to be the top Italian team hoping to sign him, but Inter Milan has recently joined the race. As they assess Francesco Acerbi's future, Inter Milan is reportedly considering a move for Hermoso, according to sources from Football Italia.
Hermoso has emerged as a possible alternative for Acerbi, who Inter may contemplate selling in the summer due to his recent participation in a racism scandal. Hermoso is a desirable possibility for elite teams around Europe, such as Juventus and currently Inter Milan, due to his versatility in playing as a left- or center-back.
