The player is valued at around €30 million; his contract expires in 2028, but as mentioned, there is a real possibility that the Italian goalkeeper will leave England this summer.Guglielmo Vicario has long been on Inter’s radar; the club had already tried to sign him in the summer of 2023 when he was at Empoli. On that occasion, the Nerazzurri had shown interest in the player, who had expressed a willingness to move to Milan; Empoli were asking for €20 million, but at the time Marotta and Ausilio were involved in other negotiations and had asked for more time.
