Destiny Udogie has emerged as a transfer target for Inter Milan following the departure of Ivan Perisic to Tottenham Hotspur, Megasportsarena.com reports.
The 19 year old has also reportedly attracted interest in Serie A from Inter Milan and Lazio, there are also clubs outside of Italy that are interested in the teenager who was born to Nigerian parents.
Udinese have chosen to take up the €4 million option to buy Udogie outright after he spent the last season on loan from Hellas, a club he had been at since 2017.
And what an impressive 2021-22 season it was.
Playing more as a wingback than an outright fullback like he would likely do at Juventus, Udogie scored five goals and added four assists in nearly 2,500 minutes this season.
While there are other measurables that leave a little to be desired, to have that kind of offensive production at his age and relative inexperience in Italy’s top flight is quite the impressive stat line after playing in just a handful of games for Hellas Verona last season.
