Mousa Dembele has been linked with a move from Tottenham to Inter Milan.

Italian outlet Gazzetta Dello Sport claim Inter Milan are set to sign AS Roma midfielder Radja Nainggolan this summer and the Belgian star wants his imminent new club to sign Tottenham Hotspur star Mousa Dembele.

The 30-year-old is set to move to Inter after a superb season that saw the Belgian help Roma reach the semi-finals of the Champions League. Making 42 appearances, he scored six goals and laid on 11 assists.

Despite his excellent form, he failed to make Roberto Martinez’s Belgium squad for the World Cup – unlike Dembele – and is now set to move to Inter. Both parties are said to have agreed a deal.

Now, Nainggolan is said to have urged Inter to now sign Dembele, whom has been linked with a move to the Italian giants as he enters the final 12 months of his contract – CalcioMercato claim Inter have offered the Spurs man a contract.

Both Dembele and Nainggolan were born in Antwerp and played for Germain Beerschot during their youth. Now, Nainggolan wants a reunion at Inter with the Spurs star.

Dembele featured for Belgium in their World Cup opener, as they beat Panama 3-0. His focus will be on the World Cup, but following the end of the tournament, he could find himself with a new club.
