Taremi signed for Inter van Porto last year and made 26 performances in the Serie A this season, although only seven of them started when the side of Milan finished second behind Napoli.

He also played a dozen times in their Champions League run, but was an unused replacement for their 5-0 humiliation in the hands of Paris Saint Germain in the final.

Inter is also confronted with the Japanese club Urawa Red Diamonds and South African Giants River Plate in the group phase of the new and controversial 32-team tournament that runs until July 14.

The Serie A -side is accompanied by domestic rivals and 10 other European parties, represented by Chelsea and Manchester City.

Despite a price fund of £ 775 million, with the winners who could bank almost £ 100 million for seven work games, many players complained about having to participate in a tournament for what is usually their short off-season.

The tournament started on Saturday evening at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami with Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami who played a tasteless scoreless draw against Al Ahly.
