Gremio prepared to sell Inter Milan target Fernandes

Inter Milan chief Marco Branca knows the asking price of Gremio defender Mario Fernandes.

Branca has been in regular contact with Gremio about Fernandes as he attempts to set up an end-of-season deal for the youngster.

Local newspaper ClicRBS says Gremio president Duda Kroeff has agreed with Fernandes' investors, who hold 50 per cent of his registration, to put the 19 year-old on the market for €15 million.

Branca will continue talks with Gremio and Fernandes' agent, Jorge Machado, in an attempt to talk down the price.
