On his return to Inter, the 30-year-old striker scored 14 goals and registered 7 assists as Inter got into their first champions league final since 2010 as they lost a goal to nil to English champions Manchester City.
Inter have decided to leave the negotiations as Juventus insist they will sign the player provided that they are able to sell their striker Vlahovic who has been linked to Paris Saint Germain.
