Genoa president Preziosi confirms €60M Inter Milan deal for Pellegri, Mora

Published on: 28 June 2017

Genoa president Enrico Preziosi has defended the sale of teenagers Pietro Pellegri and Eddy Salcedo Mora to Inter Milan.

Including bonuses, the fee for the pair could rise to €60 million.

"Is the deal done with Inter? It's more yes than no," Preziosi told Ansa.

“Is it too expensive? I could reply by asking how much the other players are worth and they were paid hundreds of millions. Everyone finds values in certain negotiations that seem congruous.

“There's a lot of talk in football, but then we need to see if the full fee with bonuses is reached. When we're talking about a player like Pellegri who has certain characteristics, he can be of interest not just to Inter or Roma, but also to other squads at international level.

“Recently Real Madrid paid €45m just for Vinicius at age 16, so what are we complaining about?"
