Inter Milan have not opened talks to sign Atalanta youngster and Tottenham target Musa Barrow.
Inter Milan are yet to make a move for Atalanta sensation Musa Barrow, who has also attracted interest from Tottenham Hotspur, according to the player’s agent.
Musa, 19, enjoyed a spectacular first-half of the season with Atalanta’s Primavera side, scoring 23 goals in 18 appearances before ending the campaign with three goals and an assist in five Serie A appearances for the seniors.
Having taken the Italian top flight by storm, reports have inevitably linked him with moves to more established European clubs with Calciomercato.com recently claiming Mauricio Pochettino’s side are among a list of clubs pursuing Barrow, with Borussia Dortmund and Juventus also said to be interested.
Inter Milan have also been closely linked but in news that will encourage Spurs, the Nerazzurri are yet to launch any formal efforts to keep the Gambia-born starlet in Italy.
Barrow’s agent told FCInterNews.It: “At the moment I have not heard anything [from Inter]. Let’s say if there was something concrete, they would have spoken to me.”
Tottenham could well be in the market for another centre forward with the club still to bring in an able deputy for Harry Kane to lead the line in the England international’s absence. Attempts to fill that role in the form of Vincent Janssen and Fernando Llorente have so far proven unsuccessful, with Heung-min Son often asked to move inside and provide cover when necessary.
