Spurs transfer news: Tottenham and Arsenal still interested in Ivan Perisic

Corriere dello Sport (h/t Calciomercato) claims that Tottenham and Arsenal are still interested in the 30-year-old winger Ivan Perisic.

The report adds that the pair will fight it out for the Croatian’s signature. Perisic had a wonderful World Cup as he led Croatia to the final, however, his season with Inter hasn’t taken off.

The 30-year-old has scored just six goals in all competitions for the Italian giants and has just four assists to his name this season.

London pair interested in Perisic last summer too

The report adds that the London pair were interested in signing the winger last season too, and Manchester United were also keen on the 30-year-old.

The Gunners were close to wrapping up a deal for Perisic with a loan deal and an obligation to buy the winger, however, the report claims this deal could not be finalised.

Tuttomercatoweb (h/t Football.london) claims that Tottenham are willing to pay €25m for the 30-year-old.

Perisic’s contract ends in 2022 and Tuttomercatoweb (h/t Football.london) adds that Inter are looking at a price of €35m for the winger.

The 30-year-old has a bag-load of experience from playing in the Serie A, and it will be interesting to see which club he could join in the summer.
