Three Inter Milan players Tottenham should target amid financial problems

Inter Milan are champions of Italy for the first time since 2010.

But their triumph threatens to be overshadowed by their financial problems.

Italian outlet Corriere Dello Sport report that Antonio Conte’s men may need to listen to offers for their top players to raise funds.

So what are the potential implications for English clubs? We’ve taken a look at three Inter players Tottenham could look at this summer…

Tottenham have been heavily linked with central defender Skriniar, including by ESPN back in September.

Then, they reported that Spurs were unwilling to meet Inter’s asking price given their summer spending on the likes of Sergio Reguilon.

Now, Inter might be more willing to negotiate, given their financial situation.

Spurs badly need a new central defensive leader to transform them like Virgil van Dijk and Ruben Dias have done at Liverpool and Manchester City.

According to Calciomercato, Spurs are among the clubs keen on Inter midfielder Barella.

Despite investment in the likes of Pierre-Emile Højbjerg and Tanguy Ndombele in recent years, Tottenham’s midfield still needs sorting.

Barella is an energetic midfielder and at just 24, he has his best years ahead of him.

It wouldn’t be easy for Spurs to sign him – Liverpool are also thought to be keen – but the Italian has a big future.

You can’t have an article about Spurs and Inter without mentioning Eriksen.

The Dane is on a significant contract at San Siro and might be one the club looks to move on if they want to save money.

Spurs would always be connected with a swoop for their former playmaker, given the fact he hasn’t been effectively replaced yet.

This one would be unlikely, but Spurs may well look into it if there is an Inter clearout this summer.
