Inter Milan has started its early moves in the transfer market, anticipating the possibility of defender Alessandro Bastoni's departure, amid Barcelona's interest in signing him in the upcoming period.

The newspaper 'La Gazzetta dello Sport' reported that there is an agreement between Bastoni and his club to postpone any discussion about his future until the Italian league title is officially decided, despite rising speculations about his potential transfer.

On the other hand, the newspaper 'Tutto Sport' stated that Inter has already reached an agreement with the potential replacement, Bosnian defender Tarik Muharemovic, a 23-year-old Sassuolo player, who is considered one of the season's biggest surprises in the Italian league.

According to the report, Inter has taken advanced steps to ensure the advantage of signing the player, whose rights are shared 50% with Juventus, given the strong relationship between the managements of Inter and Sassuolo, which could facilitate the completion of the deal.

Muharemovic excels in playing as a left-footed center-back and can also occupy the left-back position, making him an important option among Inter's priorities to strengthen the backline.

Inter also has several other names on the table, including Omar Soule of Udinese, Joel Ordonez of Club Brugge, Mario Gila of Lazio, and Giovanni Leone of Liverpool.

The picture is expected to become clearer during the summer transfer window, as Inter seeks to secure a strong replacement in case Bastoni moves to Barcelona.
