Tottenham are ready to make a convincing offer for Inter defender Alessandro Bastoni, hoping to beat Manchester City to the punch.
The Nerazzurri will be forced to sell one top player this summer in order to help balance their accounts and many players have been linked with moves away in recent months, like Lautaro Martinez and Milan Skriniar. At the time being, however, Bastoni seems likely the most likely to be sold.
As reported by Corriere dello Sport, Tottenham are prepared to submit a serious offer for Bastoni, keen to reunite him with Antonio Conte in North London. The sale would allow Inter to keep their other stars, leaving Simone Inzaghi with a competitive squad for next season.
Manchester City and Manchester United are both also keen to secure the 23-year-old Italian centre back’s signature in the summer, but Spurs seem to have the advantage at the moment.
Inter value Bastoni at around €50-60m and it’s unlikely that they’ll let him leave for any less as they work to balance their accounts.
