Yann Sommer could reportedly stay at Inter Milan beyond the summer despite the club’s pursuit of Guglielmo Vicario.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport via FCInter1908, the Nerazzurri are considering handing the Swiss veteran a short-term contract extension.
Despite earlier expectations, Yann Sommer could sign a new contract at San Siro in the coming months.
Indeed, his current deal runs out in June. However, Inter have not yet discarded the possibility of keeping him at the club for another season.
Still, the runaway Serie A leaders remain hellbent on signing Guglielmo Vicario from Tottenham Hotspur in the summer.
Yann Sommer to Stay at Inter Milan Despite Ongoing Pursuit of Guglielmo Vicario
Though Sommer has had ups and downs this season, he has still managed 14 clean sheets in 28 Serie A appearances.
Therefore, it wouldn’t be surprising to see Inter renew his contract in the summer. However, it would require the player to accept a new role.
The former Bayern Munich star would have to settle for playing second fiddle to Vicario.
Indeed, Cristian Chivu’s men intend to make the 29-year-old their new starting goalkeeper in the 2026/27 season.
If Sommer signs the extension, Inter could let second-choice goalkeeper Josep Martinez depart after another lackluster campaign.
