Matteo Politano will not be among Antonio Conte's call-ups for Inter's Coppa Italia match against Cagliari tonight at San Siro. This is a new and important signal that his sale is nearing completion or how the discussions with Roma -- Spinazzola's name is rumored to be involved in the deal -- are in a phase so advanced that it's a risk to send him onto the pitch.
After Zaniolo's injury, Roma has focused their attention onto Politano: negotiations prepared in 24 hours over the course of Monday, with Leonardo Spinazzola ready to transfer to Inter. The final details still need to be ironed out, but Roma and Inter and heading toward the white smoke for the Politano-Spinazzola swap with more developments possibly coming today.
