Overview
- Reports on Saturday say Inter’s new sporting director Dario Baccin met Dimarco’s agent Arturo Canales in Madrid and that the club has started formal negotiations on a long-term extension.
- Dimarco’s current agreement runs to June 2027 with a club option that can push the end date to June 2028, creating a narrow window that motivates urgent talks.
- Italian outlets report Inter are willing to offer a deal running to around 2030 but want to shift pay toward performance bonuses to fit the club’s tighter financial rules overseen by its investors.
- Barcelona monitored Dimarco over the summer and remains interested as a possible 2027 target because Alejandro Balde’s place is uncertain and Barça currently lacks a settled specialist left back.
- If Inter finalise a long-term renewal it would block an affordable 2027 approach, force Barcelona to keep seeking internal solutions at left back, and shape how both clubs plan future signings.
