Considering how unreliable are a Correa and Arnautivic, we should keep both of them, unless if somebody like Como doesn't want to pounce. No loans.

Obviously no loans as their contracts end in 2025 summer.

I assume we try to dump both and accept a bit of minusvalenza in Correa's case like we did with Gosens.

The literal only hope is he accepts a move to Saudi Arabia. Unfortunately, I can't think of a single reason Saudi Arabia would want him.

2 well taken goals today, sadly he doesn't do that regularly.

I want him to stay. I get it, he’s frustrating at times but we create so many chances when he’s on the pitch. If he can stay fit, he’ll scored 10+ goals next season.

His behavior after the goals and sub makes me think he knows he’s leaving.

Why not? They just signed Nahitan Nandez for an obscene amount (of salary).

“I know very well what will happen next. I am completely calm,” Arnautovic told sport.orf.

“Journalists talk a lot when the day is long, as we all know, especially in Italy. I still have a contract with Inter, I’m completely happy, we’ve become champions this season,” he added.”

“Nobody said anything to me, not even to my brother [and agent]. I’m preparing for the European Championship, then I’m going on holiday, then I’m preparing for next year with Inter.”

He sounds pretty certain about not going anywhere.

Was to be expected, but even if he does go somewhere in this summer, this is the proper response to that question every time. The season just ended, reporters want to create something out of nothing

Yes I doubt I will ever get over those.

That said he is a depth forward. When healthy he is an irritant for opposing back lines, like an oversized suppository. His availability is his greatest weakness, though the same is true often enough when you get down to the depth types.

So I don't think Arnautovic is a critical decision either way. If you are in a big game and counting on him to come through, good luck. But this is true with so many players. I'd look for another young forward with some upside to deepen that portion of the roster if they keep Arna around. Big physical forwards are hard to find.

Arnautovic commented on how he improved at Inter this season.
“Yes, you can say that. As a person. Football is about talent, and also about the body, but the most important thing is the mental aspect. The last year was very demanding for me mentally.

“I was injured twice. The Italians said: ‘Why are you bringing in Arnautovic? He’s always injured.’ But I wasn’t injured very often. I had an edema on my bone. That’s not an injury, that’s stress.”

Finally, Arnautovic touched on how he dealt with his hamstring issue and the role he played under Inzaghi.

“The muscular aspect was tough this year. I was used to playing from the start and playing all the games. Then I had a different job, coming in for 15, 20, 30 minutes. I had to get used to it. My body adjusted to it.

“When that happened, I got injured again. It’s difficult. I’m still happy. When I played from the start, I scored. We won almost everything. Inter make everyone better. I still have a year there and I still have a lot to do.”
Seems like he doesn't have the intention to leave

I mean I'm fine with him staying as 4th striker. If the main three stay healthy he's hardly ever going to see the field. Arna is actually pretty decent overall his finishing is just atrocious. If he can just do a little bit better in that category he'd be a suitable 4th striker.

I think the last game shows he isn't that bad of a player, especially if he gains momentum (Think of how he was before the injury and starting, he came on from the bench was quite good) and overcome his mental issues (which maybe the reason why he played so well the last game.) As long as he performs like that in less important games, he is extremely useful to us.

With that said, the thing is, we can still use someone even better if the opportunity rise.
