Season 2016-2017 turned out really successful for the Senegalese midfielder, who scored 16 goals and gave 5 assists in 31 Serie A games.
His efforts were noticed by the bosses of Monaco, who last summer signed Balde for 30 million euros.
In France, things have not gone so well for Keith.
In League 1, he spent only 23 games, writing on his account 8 goals and 5 assists.
According to Italian journalist Gianluca Di Marzio, Inter actively works on the return of Balde to Italy, and "Nerazzurri" is very close to the deal. Most likely, Keita will go to the Milan club as a lease, but there is also a variant with an exchange for one of the players of Inter - Antonio Kandreev or Dalbert.
Earlier it was reported that "Nerazzurri" offered 40 million for midfielder Real Luka Modrica.
