Its evolution was also mentioned by Christian Chivu during his pre-match press conference ahead of the Atalanta game, highlighting how closely the club continues to monitor one of its most promising academy products.

His recent performances, including a remarkable goal against Genk, have only increased the outside attention.

According to La Gazzetta du SportInquiries came in from several major European clubs.

In England, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Newcastle United have all collected information.

Interest has also emerged in Germany, with Borussia Dortmund and Bayer Leverkusen monitoring the situation.

Inter have not yet decided whether they will trigger the buyout clause, set at €23m for 2026 and €25m for 2027.

However, given the growing market around the player, it seems unlikely that the club will let him slip away without taking action.

One possible scenario could even see Inter bring Stankovic back to Milan before selling him on at a higher valuation.
