Inter's Post-Sommer Goalkeeper Redesign: Vicario vs Caprile

Inter Post-Sommer Goalkeeper Redesign: Vicario vs Caprile

Inter Milan is about to write a new chapter in its goalkeeping history as they prepare for life after Jan Sommer.

The Nerazzurri intend to strengthen the position next season as Sommer’s contract runs out in June 2026.

Sport Mediaset sources say the club has already begun scouting a suitable replacement, with strong emphasis on Italian Guglielmo Vicario from Tottenham Hotspur as the frontrunner.

The report also highlights Elia Caprile of Cagliari as a cheaper, promising option that could grow into a long-term solution.

Vicario is described as the strongest candidate in the race, while Caprile would represent a more economical youth alternative, and Emiliano Martinez is mentioned as a potential contingency.

There have even been discussions with Martinez’s camp for a possible scenario if negotiations with the primary targets stall.

Inter believes Vicario could ensure long-term continuity in goalkeeping, given his solid performances in the Premier League.

Analysts note that Caprile offers an affordable pathway, whereas Martinez remains a backup plan should everything else fall through.

Punchline 1: Inter might finally stop chasing the rainbow and chase the clean sheets instead.

Punchline 2: If Caprile signs, Inter can call it a youth movement—literally a kid guarding the goal while the pros sign autographs for the net.
