Manchester United look to have been dealt another blow in their pursuit of Ivan Perisic with the Inter Milan winger’s agent reportedly also offering him to Juventus.
The Red Devils have been linked strongly with the Croatia international for much of the summer, but recent reports suggest they’re unwilling to pay Inter’s asking price for him.
Perisic impressed in Serie A last season and is valued by his club at around £44million, which looks to be too much for United at this moment in time.
According to Tuttosport, this could see Perisic’s agent Fali Ramadani try to orchestrate a controversial transfer from the Nerazzuri to one of their biggest rivals.
Ramadani held talks with Inter over Perisic’s future this week, and it is thought that the prospect of a move to Turin has been thrown up as a possibility.
This would surely not go down well with Inter boss Luciano Spalletti, who earlier today seemed to aim a thinly-veiled dig at the 28-year-old admit doubts over his future at the San Siro.
‘Those who play here must feel they are Inter, not just a player who is at Inter. Otherwise there’s no point talking about a sense of belonging,’ Spalletti told Gazzetta dello Sport.
‘The lads mustn’t think: “I am Candreva or Murillo, an Inter player,” but rather “I am Inter!” You need to always keep in mind the great history of this club.
‘I will hammer this concept into them in every instant. If they don’t understand what it means to wear the Inter shirt, then we’ll get nowhere.’
