Branca says Jonathan will join next week.
“We have no intention of selling out big players. We could only talk about it when faced with incredible offers,” technical director Branca told Sky Sport Italia.

“Jonathan will arrive next week, but he won’t be Maicon’s replacement, because Maicon is staying as so far we haven’t received adequate offers.”

It is effectively a call for clubs, above all Real Madrid, to make a proposal for the right-back.

Another veteran considering his future is Lucio, whose contract expires in June 2012.

“There is a problem over the length of Lucio’s contract in the renegotiations, but we are confident he can stay with us.”

Branca also commented on other players linked with Inter this summer.

“Eder Banega? We cannot talk about negotiations as such, but there is an interest. Erik Lamela is a player we are tracking.”

He seems tidy enough, he just needs to improve on some decision making and touches, but I admire his pace, cross and shot. However he is not as tall as Maicon, who is built physically better at 184cm, Jonathan is only 177cm, not good for corners or tracking back and making the last ditch jumping header in open play that teams like to attempt sending the cross to the back post that Maicon is very good at defending. Many RBs and LBs struggle to get to that kind of ball in transitional open play. Santon our own prodigy is notorious for suffering from that type of diabolical ball...

Seems almost official, Branca confirmed it.

EDIT: Moratti also confirms the deal:

“We are focusing on youngsters in our transfer campaign, but youngsters who have already shown how strong they are and perhaps even won trophies in their home nations.

“For example, Alvarez has the necessary quality to entertain the fans and ensure supporters can always hope for even more success.

As for the rest, it’s the squad we already know plus a new Brazilian full-back (Jonathan, ndr) and then we’ll see later on what happens.

“We’ve got to keep an eye on the budget too, especially as most clubs don’t want to help us out, so we’ll have to take care of ourselves...”

I think we can open a player thread for him and close this one. Both Branca & Moratti confirmed him AND we don't sign players with bad teeth :D

This signing shows possibility of Maic leaving is high....

We need to raise funds somehow... and the cash we land from sale of the likes of Pandev, Muntari, Chivu isnt gonna allow us to afford more than two top quality talents costing 10+ million. Now that it looks like Maicon's replacement is here, his time may be up.

in tht case since Ozil + Cash would be impossible....

Marcelo + Cash is good as well....

I think we should just get cash and use the funds to finance the Alvarez, Banega, and Jonathan transfers.



:D

I think it's basically saying that the injury that caused him to miss the Copa Libertadores final is healed
