Inter Milan have not given up their pursuit of Manu Kone, especially with Roma pressured by Financial Fair Play rules.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInterNews, the Giallorossi must raise around €90 million from player sales.

However, refusing to sell Manu Kone to Inter in August, despite a €40 million offer, only postponed the problem.
Therefore, Beppe Marotta remains hopeful of signing the French midfielder.
