A few days ago, TuttomercatoWeb told us that Spurs’ interest in Milan Škriniar was paused after Inter advised they were not looking for a payment plan for the Slovak. Which must have caused Daniel Levy to pull an interesting face.
However, Calciomercato (among many) believe that Inter’s current gaffer, Antonio Conte, could yet walk or be pushed from the coach’s role at Inter. Were Conte to leave, this might secure Škriniar’s future in Italy, as it has been suggested that the former Chelsea gaffer was not a big fan of the 25-year-old.
Transfermarkt value the centreback at just over £40million and it ought to be noted that this IS the player’s post-COVID-19 price.
Now, IF Spurs are truly determined to land such a quality player, that would heavily suggest that fans could expect at least or possibly even two notable exits from Spurs this summer.
Personally, I would be delighted to see Jose Mourinho get stuck in and show the squad the ‘churn’ of players that was so desperately missing under his predecessor. The whole business of being happy with a squad that cannot deliver great results is too flawed for words.
Moving on Harry Winks and Dele Alli (for example) would reinvigorate the club no end.
