Inter's Next Star Faces Premier League Interest: Will He Stay or Move?
Inter Milan's rising star Esposito attracts Premier League scouts as contract talks loom.

Rising Star Draws Premier League Attention

Esposito on the Premier League radar.

Francesco Bio Esposito, Inter Milan's young striker, has drawn the eye of several Premier League clubs thanks to his eye-catching form since the season began.

According to Tuttosport, Inter are prepared to offer him a contract extension soon. The 20-year-old, a product of Inter's academy, returned to San Siro last summer after a two-year loan at Spezia in Serie B.

Contract Talks, Debut, and Numbers

His current deal runs until 2030, but Inter want to extend by another year and boost his salary significantly.

Inter executives will soon meet with his agent, Mario Giuffredi, to negotiate.

Esposito earns around €1.1 million per year at San Siro, and Inter are ready to push beyond €2.5 million including add-ons to keep him from England's clutches.

This season he has four goals and five assists in 24 appearances across all competitions.

The 20-year-old made his Italy senior debut in September 2025 under coach Gennaro Gattuso, already scoring three goals in five caps.

Punchline 1: If Premier League clubs keep circling, Inter might need a bigger locker room to house all the trophies coming home.

Punchline 2: When in doubt, remember: goals may win matches, but good contract timing wins careers—Esposito knows how to dial 1-0 on the clock.
