Inter have a different plan for Dani Carvajal — possibly coming for free
After failing to sign Palestra, Inter is reviewing the market again and the possibility of signing Dani Carvajal from Real Madrid appears for a parametro zero.
After Palestra's failed arrival, Inter were forced to restructure their market plan. According to the report, the missed investment left the Nerazzurri with around 55 million euros — a huge fund that could be allocated to other parts of the plantilla.
With the principle of autofinancing as the guide this summer, Giuseppe Ausilio and Dario Baccin had to carefully examine each step. They lead the search for sustainable solutions: market opportunities that will increase the quality of the team without burdening the budget.
Among the names that are emerging on the club's list, and which seem attractive because the cost will be kept quiet, is Dani Carvajal. Real Madrid's veteran right back is nearing the end of his long spell with Los Blancos and is planning to choose his next destination. Currently, there are no concrete negotiations, but his name is linked to Inter because of the great experience and technical capacity he can add to the dressing room.

However, it is clearly not yet certain what role he will be offered in any Nerazzurri project: he could come as first choice on the right side or as an experienced reserve to support a new acquisition — as L'Interista writes.
Before there was a surge of interest in Carvajal, the plan was to put Palestra as an alternative at right back. But with Chelsea's raid for the Palestra tracked, the possible scenarios have changed and now Inter are reopening their options.
At the moment, Carvajal's name is only one of the considerations of the club's direction. Ausilio and Baccin will review the details before making a final move, as Inter's main goal is building a competitive team without sacrificing financial stability.
