Overview
- Inter's new sporting director Dario Baccin met Dimarco's agent Arturo Canales in Madrid on Saturday, September 12, 2026 to open formal contract-extension talks.
- The club is reported to be targeting a new deal that would keep Dimarco at Inter through 2030 as a response to Barcelona's late-window monitoring and swap discussions.
- Negotiations are expected to include a wage improvement from Dimarco's current reported net salary of about €4 million and a shift toward performance-linked terms under Inter's new financial framework.
- Dimarco is currently under contract until June 2027 with a club option for 2028, he publicly said he was surprised Inter had not triggered an earlier extension, and he missed the recent Bernabéu trip with a mild knee sprain but is returning to training.
- If Inter completes a long-term renewal it would secure a highly rated left-back for domestic and European campaigns and likely force Barcelona to wait until 2027 or seek alternative options for the specialist left-back role.
