Manuel Akanji, a treble winner with Manchester City, left the club on loan on Deadline Day to join Cristian Chivu at Inter Milan.
The deal was reportedly worth €2 million (£1.7 million; $2.3 million) initially with a €15 million purchase clause. The option becomes an obligation if the Swiss defender plays in 50% of games or if the Nerrazzuri win Serie A. Seemingly a result of Pep Guardolia pushing for a smaller squad this summer transfer window, Akanji found himself on the outside looking in as the window drew closer and closer to shutting.
