Anzhi Makhachkala striker Samuel Eto o could make a sensational return to Inter Milan just months after being sold, according to reports.
The 30-year-old moved to the Russian Premier League club during the Serie A off-season and said he would always support Inter.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, his support could turn into much more, as whispers of a loan deal in January spread in Italy.
Eto o was spotted in Milan a city with which he maintains close ties during the international break.
For the moment, the press have suggested it is just an idea rumoured to have come from the 30-year-old.
The Russian championship ends on November 6 and does not start again until March 3, 2012.
Eto o would be eligible to join Inter on loan terms from January 2, when the transfer window in Italy reopens for business. He scored 37 goals for the Italian club in all competitions last season.
However, such a move would have to be granted by Anzhi, who own him after paying the Italian club a reported 28 million euros in August.
Inter have a non-EU place available for Eto o to return and he will not take part in the Africa Cup of Nations in January after Cameroon failed to qualify, leaving him free to return if an agreement was reached.
The proposed move would be similar to what David Beckham did in 2009 when he joined AC Milan on loan from LA Galaxy in the MLS off season.
