Inter’s January Move: Tajon Buchanan on the Radar

Recent reports suggest that Inter is actively pursuing a move for Tajon Buchanan, the talented winger from Club Brugge and a key player for the Canadian national team. The Nerazzurri are reportedly considering an initial loan deal for the 24-year-old, whose impressive performances have caught Inter’s attention since the World Cup in Qatar last year.

Buchanan, a native of Ontario, has been on Inter’s radar for some time, and their sustained interest has fueled the player’s desire to join San Siro, according to recent updates. Notably, the winger has decided against extending his current contract with Club Brugge, set to expire in the summer of 2025. In a move signaling his potential departure, Buchanan was notably absent from the Brugge squad that secured a 6-1 victory against RWDM in the Belgian Pro League.

The valuation of Buchanan poses a key consideration in the potential transfer, with Club Brugge placing the winger in the €12m-€13m range due to his contractual situation. However, Inter is reportedly confident in structuring a deal that could lower the overall cost. One proposed scenario suggests that Inter might seek an initial loan agreement, costing between €1m-€2m, coupled with an option to buy. This option could become mandatory based on certain performance conditions.

Competition and Alternatives: Premier League Interest in Buchanan

While Inter pursues Tajon Buchanan, two Premier League clubs, namely Bournemouth and Manchester City, have also expressed keen interest in the Canadian winger. The competition for Buchanan’s signature adds another layer of complexity to the potential transfer, highlighting the player’s desirability in the current market. As negotiations unfold, it remains to be seen whether Inter can successfully secure Buchanan’s services amidst competition from English top-flight clubs. The upcoming January transfer window promises intrigue as clubs vie for the talented winger’s signature, each hoping to bolster their respective squads with Buchanan’s skill and potential.
