Milan and Inter considered moves for Malinovskyi in the past

Serie A giants Milan and Inter had previously considered moves for Atalantaโ€™s Ruslan Malinovskyi in the past.

Daniele Longo has reported that Malinovskyi is still very much liked by Interโ€™s Piero Ausilio and there have been talks in the past about a potential move. But nothing materialised and the player stayed at La Dea, as Antonio Conte would have struggled to accomodate him to the 3-5-2 shape.

Last summer, Milan had tried to sign the player but they too failed. They saw the Ukraine international as a potential replacement for Hakan Calhanoglu, who joined Inter for free.

But Atalanta never opened up for a sale and didnโ€™t want to sell the player to a direct rival. And now, he could be ready to extend his contract at La Dea beyond 2023.

Malinovskyi had scored a fantastic long-range strike for Atalanta against Juventus yesterday but the Bianconeri equalised through Danilo late in the game.
