Serie A: Milan Skriniar exits Inter Milan after six seasons

Inter Milan has confirmed that Slovakia’s captain Milan Skriniar will be leaving the club as a free agent ahead of a move to Paris Saint-Germain.

Confirming the departure of Milan Skirniar, Inter Milan said in a short statement;

“Six seasons full of victories and satisfactions: Milan Skriniar ‘s adventure with the Inter shirt ends here. At Inter since the summer of 2017, Skriniar has been one of the protagonists of Inter’s extraordinary growth path, which began with their return to the Champions League in 2018 and culminated with the conquest of five trophies in the last three seasons.

“A Scudetto, two Italian Cups and two Italian Super Cups: these are the trophies won by Skriniar with the Nerazzurri shirt, with which he collected a total of 246 appearances and 11 goals in his six seasons. Greetings and thanks from the entire Inter family go to Skriniar.”

Skriniar hasn’t played for Inter since March and had spinal surgery the following month. He missed a thrilling end to the season which includes a victory over city rivals AC Milan in the Champions League semi-final.

Relations between the player and the club had become strained at the turn of the year. Inter failed to sell him to PSG in the January transfer window and stripped him of the captaincy in February after he refused to renew his contract.

The Slovak international is expected to complete a move to PSG soon and will team up with Marquinhos and Presnel Kimpembe in the heart of the club’s backline after spending six seasons with Inter Milan.

Inter is reported to have already lined up possible replacements for Skriniar, with Fiorentina’s Nikola Milenkovic among those to have been linked with a switch to San Siro.
