Kristjan Asllani has officially turned down an offer from Spanish side Real Betis, making it clear that his intention is to continue his career in Serie A. The Albanian midfielder, currently under contract with Inter Milan, has struggled to find consistent playing time under coach Simone Inzaghi and is now looking for a team where he can feature more regularly. Even under Inter’s youth coach Cristian Chivu, Asllani appears to be outside the core plans.
Despite his evident talent and high expectations from fans and pundits alike, the 22-year-old spent most of the previous season in the shadows, often being the second or third choice in midfield. This situation has drawn interest from several clubs, with Fiorentina and Bologna emerging as the most prominent contenders for his signature.
Both Serie A clubs see Asllani as a strategic reinforcement for their midfield and are reportedly ready to offer him more regular playing time. For his part, Asllani is determined not to leave Italy, preferring instead to establish himself fully in a league he already knows well.
Inter, however, is not open to sending him out on loan, indicating that a permanent transfer is the most likely outcome. The situation sets the stage for a pivotal move in Asllani’s career — one that could finally give him the platform to shine consistently at the highest level of Italian football.
