Mauricio Isla, the Chilean fullback of Udinese, has been monitored throughout the season by Inter scouts, and is being considered to be a possible replacement for Maicon, if the Brazilian does not renew his contract. In addition to the defender, Alejandro Gomez seems to be closer than ever to moving to Inter Milan. To clarify these two rumours, their South American agent Leo Rodriguez answers a few questions…

Now we just have to see what the developments are: there are 3-4 big clubs who follow him even outside of Italy. We will wait and see what is going to happen when he completes his rehabilitation.

He has done well in the last two years at Catania, a club that deserves our respect. He is an important player whose ambitions is to play for a top club. Many coaches, among those are Montella and Simeone, appreciate and want to coach him. His value? That belongs to the clubs…
