According to Gianlluca di Marzio, Atalanta is interested in Chelsea 's Tammy Abraham to replace Zapata. Duvan Zapata is rumoured to be linked with Inter as they want Colombian International striker to replace their outgoing striker Lukaku who is said to re-sign for CFC after leaving London in 2014 for Everton. Tuchel wants to add a reliable striker to his UCL winning squad as he is not impressed with Werner. Lukaku also played for Manutd before signing for Inter in 2019 under Conte. After helping them win league & has been their top scorer for 2 seasons, is now considered a top striker again after inconsistent spell with Manutd.

CFC have made 2 bids but Inter is now planning to sell him as they are cash strap. Since winning Serie A club has already sold Hakimi & let Conte leave. Inter see Zapata as a perfect replacement for him as he has been on fire with Atalanta for last few seasons. Atalanta who are replacing Romero going to Spurs with Juve 's Demiral also has another replacement option ready with Tammy who was key in his first season under Lampard but under Tuchel he struggled to get starts & now he might get those under Gasperini. Also Inter want to add Correa from Lazio along with Zapata.
