Despite Roma’s previous interest in the player, the Nerazzurri have entered the race for the Frenchman’s signature at the last-minute and will hope to swoop in ahead of the Giallorossi.

Sky Sport Italia have reported that the Greek outfit are holding out for at least €10 million from potential parties, and only then will they negotiate a possible sale.

Roma are yet to match this asking price which will encourage Inter in the race to sign the player.

Should the 21-year-old move to the Stadio Giuseppe Meazza, Roberto Mancini could enter the new season with an entirely new defence, after the signings of Martin Montoya, Miranda and Jeison Murillo.

Former Valenciennes man Masuaku only joined Olympiacos in 2014, replacing Roma-bound Jose Holebas, and has made 27 appearances for the Athens-based club.
