Inter are quietly kicking the tires of a couple of goalkeepers

Josep Martinez has had some very up-and-down performances and made a few blunders since Inter handed him the reins, and while he’s unlikely to go down any time soon, the brass are doing their due diligence if they eventually go in a different direction.

according to Corriere dello Sport (via Football style), the Nerazzurri“Inter” and “Fiorentina” are watching the player of “River Plate” Santiago Beltran. He is unlikely to renew his contract, which expires in December 2027. His price is €20 million, but his side will lose leverage over time. He made his debut with Argentina last June and is considered by some to be the successor to Dibou Martinez.

Inter are also tracking a pair of Serie A options: Maduka Okoye and Filip Stankovic. Per Veneto Messenger (via Tribune), the Serie A champions are scouting the Nigerian top-stopper this campaign. He has been with Friuli since 2023 after spells at Sparta Rotterdam and Watford and has kept 21 clean sheets and allowed 115 goals in 86 appearances. His wealth is also about 20 million euros.

The Nerazzurri Aleksandar Stankovic brought back in the summer of 2025. Tuttomercatoweb reports. However, they kept the inside track to get it on a 50 percent sale. If they targeted him, they would pay half the price. He is at his best when he saves a Kevin De Bruyne PK in the Napoli clash.

Our thoughts on Inter and Josep Martinez

It’s still a bit early to judge it, but initial impressions aren’t too promising. They decided a long time ago that they didn’t necessarily need a world-class goaltender and weren’t going to splurge on that position. Still, someone who doesn’t give a damn is the bare minimum at this level. Beltran and Stankovic would be viable candidates if they continue to grow, while Okoye is pretty sloppy.
