Josep Martinez will be the future goalkeeper of Inter Milan?
The goalkeeper will not only be the deputy Sommer for this season, but is the chosen to become the starter
Against Monza, it could be the Spaniard’s turn to defend the Nerazzurri.
It was a targeted and reasoned transfer market of the Inter Milan.
In January the Nerazzurri club had blocked Taremi and Zielinski, but a pawn to complete the job was missing, a deputy Sommer.
A figure that the Nerazzurri leadership has identified in Josep Martinez.
The Spanish goalkeeper was the most important investment of the Nerazzurri summer: 13.5 million euros (£11.3 million) plus bonuses. And there is a very specific reason behind this decision.
The Spaniard, in fact, will not only be the deputy Sommer for this season, but is the chosen to become the starter, says the Corriere dello Sport.
"Probably already from the next year, although there is still a margin of uncertainty. The truth is that Inter Milan wanted to move forward.
Martinez, however, will not stand by. Or rather, Inter Milan does not want him to spend a season on the sidelines.
The plan is to get him more involved, so he quickly gets used to play as a starter in a club as important as Inter Milan.
In short, he will have his opportunities, without waiting for any Sommer’s injurys. Who knows, maybe already on the next match, against Monza he might have a chance".
"Inzaghi will evaluate these days, since it will have both his goalkeepers available to the Pinetina.
Moreover, for the purchase of Martinez weighed very much Inzaghi's word.
Against Genoa last season, the coach from Piacenza had impressed his ability to handle the ball and start the action.
He continued to study him, monitoring it with attention and frequency, so that he considered it suitable and ready to land in Nerazzurro.
Something that has already happened in the Nerazzurri home. It is enough to think about twenty years ago, when the witness passed from Toldo to Julio Cesar: needless to say that it was a success.
It went well a couple of seasons ago, with Onana taking the place of Handanovic".
