Agent: Obinna to play for Inter
Thursday 3 July, 2008

Nigerian striking sensation Victor Obinna will be spending next year at Inter, according to the player’s agent.

The 21-year-old marksman has been at Chievo for the last three years, but Inter helped to fund the starlet’s move to Verona as part of a complex co-ownership arrangement.

There have been suggestions that Inter would buy Chievo’s share of Obinna and use the player for a part-exchange bid for Roma’s Amantino Mancini, but representative Gaetano Paolillo thinks he’ll be at San Siro next term.

“The Nerazzurri haven’t spoken to me about the prospect of Victor joining any other team,” he told Centro Suono Sport.

“Last year there was direct contact from Roma to the player, but Chievo put a stop to everything.

“The lad will go to Inter and in my opinion he will stay. There is a chance that he could go to Napoli, but that’s no more likely than Roma.

“Most likely he will be with the Beneamata. Great teams need great players and I think there will be space for Obinna.”
