Mauricio Pochettino will surely be looking to add quality to his Tottenham Hotspur squad this summer.
Inter Milan’s Ivan Perisic
News broke today that Spurs have made an enquiry about the availability of Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic, with Italian media outlet Corriere dello Sport claiming that Mauricio Pochettino is weighing up a summer swoop for the Croatian.
The 28-year-old is undoubtedly a top class player, and with the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United also interested in the Inter Milan wide man, Spurs may have to sweeten any kind of deal by offering one of their players to the Nerazzurri.
Here are three players who Tottenham could offer to the Italian giants, in a bid to seal the deal for the Croatian:
Moussa Sissoko:
The Frenchman moved to Spurs on transfer deadline day in the summer of 2016, but has proven himself to be nothing other than a total flop.
The 27-year-old has played a peripheral role in Tottenham’s season, and Pochettino would surely be willing to allow him to leave the club this summer.
Calcio Mercato reported earlier this year that the San Siro outfit were interested in Sissoko, so it could be a deal that suits all parties.

Kevin Wimmer:
The Austrian has performed admirably when called upon during his time at White Hart Lane, but when push comes to shove, it is doubtful whether Pochettino would class him as an integral member of the first-team squad.
And with Inter on the look out for a centre-back, the offer of Wimmer as part of any kind of deal for Perisic could swing the scales in Spurs’ favour.

Erik Lamela:
The Argentine has had to endure an extremely frustrating campaign, with an ongoing injury problem disrupting his season.
The Tottenham hierarchy, as well as Pochettino, must be losing patience with the 25-year-old. He does have tremendous ability, however, and therefore still has some kind of appeal to any potential suitors.
The former Roma man surely has plenty still to offer, and the more pedestrian-paced style of Serie A might be better suited to him.
