Mauricio Isla’s move to Inter from Serie A rivals Juventus looks to be on hold as the Bianconeri reportedly want to keep the Chilean.
The Beneamata have been in talks with the La Vecchia Signora for the Chilean for some time now, and just as a deal appeared to be reached, talks over the transfer have stalled.
“There is still work to do for [Mauricio] Isla,” Inter sporting director Piero Ausilio told Sport Italia.
“As with all important transfers, a bit of time is needed.”
Although it is unclear what has stalled the negotiations the suggestion is Isla’s co-owners Udinese have complicated matters for the deal, along with Juventus coach Antonio Conte’s reluctance to let him leave until a replacement is signed.
The Nerazzurri have also been linked with moves for Feyernoord rightback Daryl Janmaat and Paris Saint-Germain’s Gregory Van der Weil as a potential option should the deal fall through.
