Inter Milan eyeing Liverpool striker Firmino as Lukaku alternative

Inter Milan are eyeing Liverpool striker Roberto Firmino as an alternative to Romelu Lukaku.

Lukaku, on-loan at Inter from Chelsea, has struggled to recapture his form at Inter of two years ago.

TMW says Inter president Steven Zhang is weighing up passing on Lukaku's permanent option and moving for Firmino as an alternative.

The Brazil international is off contract in June and would represent a much cheaper alternative than the Belgian.

As such, Inter's brainstrust is now actively discussing a move for Firmino.
