Inter tie Carlos Augusto down until 2031 as Conte-United link cools
The Nerazzurri club continues to count on the Brazilian, while the possibility of Antonio Conte joining Manchester United appears less likely.
Inter have decided to secure Carlos Augusto’s future, extending the Brazilian wing-back’s contract until 2031. The decision confirms the player’s importance to the Nerazzurri project and comes on the eve of the Serie A match against Fiorentina, scheduled for Sunday 25 October at San Siro.
The renewal is a clear statement about the former Monza player’s future, after he had already featured prominently this season. The club therefore does not intend to wait for the transfer market to settle his position. In the background there is also the situation involving Antonio Conte: the possibility of the coach moving to Manchester United is reportedly cooling, although no further official details have emerged for now.
For Inter, keeping Carlos Augusto comes during a demanding period. After beating Bologna 3-1 away and defeating Shakhtar 1-0 in the Champions League, Cristian Chivu’s side will face Fiorentina on Sunday at 12:30. Venezia will follow on Wednesday 28 October, before the derby against Milan on 31 October at 20:45.
