Inter Milan Loans Midfielder Thomas Berenbruch to Avellino with Purchase Options
Inter Milan has officially loaned emerging talent Thomas Berenbruch to Serie B club Avellino, featuring both an option to buy and a counter-option for Inter.
Berenbruch, who was born in Italy and holds joint German citizenship, has represented Italy’s youth teams, known as the Azzurrini, at various levels. He is a product of the prestigious Inter academy.
The 21-year-old midfielder previously played for Inter’s Under-23 squad in Serie C but will now advance to compete in Serie B this season with Avellino.
This loan contract includes a buy option at the end of the season, while Inter has secured a counter-option that allows them to bring him back if necessary. This approach follows a similar strategy used in the past with youth player Aleksandar Stankovic when he was loaned to Club Brugge.
Berenbruch had drawn interest from clubs such as Cagliari and Utrecht before ultimately deciding on Avellino in pursuit of more regular playing time. He has made two appearances for Inter’s senior team, participating in both the Champions League against Feyenoord and the Coppa Italia semi-final clash with Milan.
