Inter eye Fiorentina right‑back Dodo as Palestra alternative

Inter Milan are actively scouting Fiorentina right‑back Dodo as a wing‑back alternative after Marco Palestra’s confirmed move to Chelsea. Dodo’s contract runs to summer 2027, Fiorentina value him at €15 million and Napoli have also shown interest.

Alfredo Pedulla reported that the Nerazzurri have launched in‑depth enquiries for Dodo, who has expressed a desire to leave Fiorentina this summer. Inter have not yet taken a final decision on the Brazilian.

The Brazilian Dodo is considered a profile worth monitoring by the champions, although he is not viewed as an upgrade over Palestra due to inconsistent performances at Fiorentina. His inconsistency is cited as a factor limiting his appeal.

Fiorentina’s valuation of Dodo stands at €15 million, a figure that places him on the radar of both Inter and Napoli, who are also monitoring the market. Napoli’s interest underscores competition for his signature.

While Dodo could become one of Inter’s options, the club is advised to keep an eye on other possibilities before committing, according to the report. Inter’s pursuit of a wing‑back remains open.
