Agent Defends Scalvini Amid Inter Criticism, Details Chelsea's Involvement

The representative for Atalanta defender Giorgio Scalvini has issued a strong rebuttal to comments made by Inter Milan President Beppe Marotta regarding the player's transfer saga. The agent insists that Inter failed to present a viable agreement with Atalanta for the highly-rated Italian international during a lengthy negotiation window.

He further elaborated on the timeline of discussions, stating that Inter never successfully finalized terms with Atalanta for Scalvini. This assertion comes amidst speculation surrounding the player's future and Inter's pursuit of him.

Adding another layer to the narrative, the agent disclosed that Chelsea had previously entered the picture and engaged with the player's camp, suggesting a broader market interest in the young centre-back.
