Giulianelli: Chelsea to take Conte over Allegri; Inter Milan match Leicester for Eder

What's the most thrilling aspect of football's transfer market and what's the aspect of it that attracts me most?

The fact that what's true today or sure today becomes false tomorrow; the fact that there are no certainties: when you are sure of one thing, be sure that it won't happen.

Until yesterday morning, Inter Milan seemed one step closer to Eder, the Brazilian born striker of the Italian national team from Sampdoria: a €12 million fee that would have been paid to his club.

Then Leicester City sent their emissaries to make a bid for him: €13 million and to overtake Inter.

This morning Inter have decide to offer the same fee and now they seem again favourite to take the man that could become the ideal strike-partner of Mauro Icardi.


MARIO SUAREZ FOR WATFORD

Mario Suarez will be the cherry on the cake of Watford's transfer window: Nicola Salerno, their sports director, is very confident of taking him in the last days of the window and the player himself has shown his pleasure to join the Pozzo family's club in Premier League.


CONTE AHEAD OF ALLEGRI FOR CHELSEA

Massimiliano Allegri is a candidate to become the new Chelsea manager next season.

The current Juventus head coach is on the shortlist being evaluated by Roman Abramovich, Chelsea's owner, and his men to lead a team that is having a very difficult season. But it will be difficult seeing him leave Juventus.

If Chelsea do go Italian, it will be with Antonio Conte.
