Inter tracking Cagliari midfielder Alessandro Romano
Inter are interested in Cagliari midfielder Alessandro Romano, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport. The 20-year-old, on loan from Roma, is seen as a possible long-term deputy for Hakan Calhanoglu, whose Inter contract expires in 2027. Romano has scored his first Serie A goal, played in all five opening matches, and received his first Italy call-up.
Inter’s reported interest in Alessandro Romano follows an active summer of recruitment, with La Gazzetta dello Sport naming him as a target. The 20-year-old is currently on loan at Cagliari from Roma and has been identified as a possible future backup to Hakan Calhanoglu, whose Inter deal runs until 2027.
Romano has started the season strongly for Cagliari, appearing in all five opening fixtures and scoring his first Serie A goal. He also earned a first Italy call-up. A mistake against Belgium, when Kevin De Bruyne took the ball before Italy conceded, has not altered Inter’s view of his left-footed potential.
This report may shape how Inter, Cagliari and Roma supporters view their clubs’ midfield planning. If Romano develops as suggested, fans could see him as a long-term option for Inter and Italy, while Cagliari may benefit from his current form. For young players, such attention could highlight pathways through loans and Serie A minutes, though any move remains speculative and dependent on performance, contracts and club decisions.
