Atletico Madrid have emerged as admirers of 2005-born Serbian talent Aleksandar Stankovic, but the Spanish giants face an uphill battle to secure his signature. Inter Milan retains a buy-back option exercisable this summer or in 2027, giving the Nerazzurri firm control over his future.
Despite the competition, reports suggest Inter are ready to trigger the clause to bring the midfielder back to Milan. Stankovic, currently valued between €35-40 million, has flourished at Club Brugge and is attracting interest from top European clubs.
