Inter are not giving up hope and still believe in the possibility of signing Lucas. According to Sky, Inter are smiling thanks to the Brazilian national team coach Mano Menezes who is not using the Sao Paulo talent (only 7 minutes against Belarus). With that, his price tag is not raising and Inter are waiting for the end of the Olympics in London in order to continue negotiating. Meanwhile, the Nerazzurri are preparing the money needed for this signing by selling its players (Luc Castaignos for example).
Competition is strong especially from Manchester United but Inter still believe.
