Eintracht Frankfurt and Inter Milan are both interested in signing Mateo Retegui from Argentine Tigre, according to Fabrizio Romano. The news comes after the 23-year-old striker made his first and second appearance for Italy in the first two matches of Euro 2024 qualifying. He scored against both England and Malta.
In addition, Retegui himself recently announced his desire to continue his career in Europe. He also named Italy as his preferred destination, which obviously puts Inter in a better position than Eintracht, but also indicated that his father is handling the matter, acting as his representative, and that at the moment nothing not decided. .
Retegi’s services are actually owned by Boca Juniors, a club he joined as a teenager and has played on loan for most of his adult career so far. Tigre, however, has the option to make the deal permanent and is expected to go live with a potential big-money sale on the horizon.
Mateo Retegui: “My next club will be in Europe. I would like to try myself in Serie A, but I don’t know yet – my dad will take care of it, ”says Gazzetta 🇦🇷🇮🇹
