Milan Skriniar is eager to leave Inter Milan for Tottenham, according to Football London.
Earlier this week, we relayed a Di Marzio story that claimed Spurs have opened talks with Skriniar. The report suggested Inter value the defender at €60 million (around £55 million).
Now, Football London believes Inter’s valuation is actually only £45 million – but Tottenham apparently want to pay even less than that.
The report claims Spurs are willing to pay £32 million plus add-ons for the centre-back, which is significantly less than Inter’s price tag.
Tottenham’s pursuit of Skriniar might be helped by the fact he seemingly wants to join the Londoners. Football London says the 25-year-old is ‘very keen’ on the move.
At the beginning of the season it looked like Jose Mourinho was happy with his centre-back situation. Toby Alderweireld, Eric Dier and Davinson Sanchez were all battling for two places, while Japhet Tanganga – when he returns from injury – can provide back-up.
But Mourinho can’t seem to decide on his best pairing, and so the addition of Skriniar will add extra competition and quality.
If that’s correct, we’ve only offered £32 Million we had better get Juan Foyth back home cos we wont be getting Skriniar
Throw in the moose we need a centre half of quality if we are going to win anything.
Maybe we can sell Sanchez and his potential- all his potentials to be caught out of position upfield looking the back field. Let me say this, there is only one Pique. i have never seen a central defender chase the opposition more than he does. Well, kyle walker and Serge are wingbacks.
