Inter Milan has reportedly turned down an offer of €32 million from Crystal Palace for their German central defender, Yann Bisseck. According to reports emanating from Italy, the Nerazzurri are maintaining a firm stance on their valuation, indicating they desire a fee closer to €40 million for the player.
This marks the second instance this summer that a Premier League club has seen a bid for Bisseck rejected. Previously, West Ham United`s €20 million offer was also dismissed by Inter.
Crystal Palace`s Pursuit of Bisseck Linked to Marc Guehi`s Future
The extent to which Crystal Palace will pursue an increased offer for Bisseck appears to be directly influenced by the uncertain future of their current defender, Marc Guehi. The 25-year-old has been a subject of considerable transfer speculation, with high-profile clubs such as Liverpool and Newcastle United reportedly expressing interest in acquiring his services.
While Marc Guehi remaining at Selhurst Park would not definitively preclude a deal for Bisseck, a significant sale, particularly of a key player in a similar position, would undoubtedly provide Crystal Palace with greater financial leverage to meet Inter`s demands for the German defender.
