Inter Milan considering a move for Atlas goalkeeper Camilo Vargas

There has been intense speculation surrounding the future of Camilo Vargas in the last period.

The latest reports in Italy suggest that Inter Milan are considering a move for Atlas goalkeeper Camilo Vargas.

The Colombia international only joined Atlas from Deportivo Cali in 2019 for 1.5 million euros and his contract runs to June 2022.

Since his arrival from Deportivo, Vargas has conceded 60 goals and provided 9 clean sheets in 42 games for Atlas.

The 31-year-old is considered to be one of the best goalkeepers in Colombia. He has been capped 6 times for Colombia since making his debut in 2014.

His impressive performances this season have apparently caught the eye of some of Europe’s big clubs.

Inter are looking to sign a goalkeeper and have identified the 31-year-old as potential transfer target.

Antonio Conte is a known admirer of the goalkeeper and is reportedly keen on the idea of bringing him this winter.

According to the report, “Inter Milan are watching Atlas goalkeeper Camilo Vargas. Record journalist David Medrano says the Colombian keeper could attract a firm move from Inter over the New Year. Indeed, Atlas are aware of Inter’s interest and anticipate a formal approach ahead of the January market in Europe. Vargas began the World Cup qualifying campaign as Colombia’s No1 and his form in Liga MX hasn’t gone unnoticed. He would move to Inter as prime cover for captain Samir Handanovic.”

Atlas are not in a position where they need to sell and would like to keep hold of the goalkeeper, but right offer may force the club to consider a deal.

Camilo Vargas is vastly experienced, is a dependable figure, and would add depth to the Inter squad.

The ball is in Inter’s court and they need to take a decision on signing Vargas.

It will be interesting to see where the player ends up this winter.
