Israeli winger Anan Khalaily has arrived in Milan to finalize his transfer to Inter Milan but must undergo a critical additional heart ultrasound test, casting uncertainty over the deal. Italian regulations require strict cardiac evaluations for players, and Khalaily's condition necessitates this extra examination scheduled for Monday or Tuesday. If he passes, he will sign with Inter; if not, the club will have to abandon the transfer.

Local media referenced the precedent of Antonio Cassano, who was allowed to continue playing for AC Milan in 2011 after heart surgery, highlighting the seriousness of Khalaily's situation. Inter Milan currently faces challenges in the right-back position following Denzel Dumfries' move to Real Madrid, with Khalaily expected to fill the gap, especially after another target, Marco Fara, chose to join Chelsea.

Should Khalaily's transfer fall through, Inter is reportedly considering alternatives such as Guela Doua, brother of PSG star Désiré Doué, as well as Dodo from Fiorentina, Andrea Cambiaso from Juventus, and Rafik Zekhnini, who is expected to leave Verona. The coming days are pivotal for Khalaily's career and Inter's defensive plans.
