Inter Milan is looking to loan French midfielder Andy Diouf next season, with Sassuolo as the leading contender. Venezia may also be interested if they secure promotion to Serie A.
Inter Milan Want To Set Up Loan Move For French Youngster, Sassuolo Among Interested Parties
Inter Milan are planning a loan move for Andy Diouf next season, with Sassuolo pushing hardest to secure the French midfielder and Venezia also in the picture should they win promotion back to Serie A.
Diouf arrived in the summer of 2025 on a contract until 2030 but has featured in just 14 matches this season, almost always as a substitute.
The incoming midfield business, most notably Koné and Stankovic, leaves even less room for the young Frenchman.
According to reports from L’Interista, Sassuolo have already made their interest known to Inter directly.
The Emilian club want Diouf and Inter are open to the idea, a loan would give him the regular Serie A minutes he needs to develop competitively.
Furthermore, the good relationship between Inter and Sassuolo CEO Giovanni Carnevali could facilitate a broader deal.
Ismael Koné and Muharemovic are already part of the ongoing conversation between the two clubs, meaning Diouf could form part of a wider package.
Indeed, Venezia represent a secondary option. The Venetian club are pushing for Serie A promotion and a return to the top flight could open the door to a loan move.
Inter Milan is considering a loan move for Andy Diouf due to his limited playing time, having appeared in only 14 matches this season.
Sassuolo is currently the most interested party in signing Andy Diouf on loan, with Venezia also showing interest contingent on their promotion to Serie A.
Andy Diouf signed with Inter Milan in the summer of 2025 on a contract that runs until 2030.
