INTER PLAN SWOOP FOR ALEXIS AFTER STRIKER SNUB

Inter Milan are expected to make a firm push to sign Alexis Sanchez in the coming days, claim reports in Italy.

Antonio Conte is scouring the market for another new striker this summer, despite landing Romelu Lukaku earlier this month, and had hoped to bring in Edin Dzeko.

However, the Bosnian’s decision to accept a new deal at Roma has closed that avenue – and Gianluca Di Marzio reckons Sanchez heads Inter’s wishlist.

United are looking to push the Chilean out of the exit door – despite Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s claims to the contrary on Friday – but any deal must include an obligation to buy.

The report claims Conte is also considering Fernando Llorente, Ante Rebic and Arkadiusz Milik.

But Tuttosport also claims Conte is most keen on exploring a deal for Sanchez, in the belief United could allow him to move on without a fee this summer.

And while Inter would need United to supplement Sanchez’s salary for the season, they hope they can reunite the player with Lukaku on the promise of an obligation to buy the Chilean.
