Overview
- Provedel’s agent, Gianni Rava, said on June 17 that talks have progressed and the transfer to Inter is “very close,” following a positive meeting with the player’s entourage.
- Both Italian outlets report the deal still needs final approval from Lazio and president Claudio Lotito before it can be completed.
- Rava said a few contractual and operational details remain to be defined and that he had not spoken with Provedel for a couple of days, signaling remaining procedural steps.
- If confirmed, Provedel would likely replace Sommer and work alongside Josep Martínez, altering Inter’s planned goalkeeper pecking order under coach Cristian Chivu.
- Reports say Lazio eased its initial price demands to clear the move and Provedel, an Inter supporter, views the transfer as a career milestone, a personal angle that adds urgency to the negotiations.
