João Mário may be back at Sporting, from where he left in 2016, towards Inter, in which he was the biggest signing so far, 40 million euros plus bonus, only surpassed by the sale of Bruno Fernandes to Manchester United in January this year.

The truth is that at the entrance of the final section of the transfer window, João Mário continues with an indefinite future and the Italians now open the doors to a new loan, with or without a purchase option, trying at least to save on the salary of the player. .
