Tottenham Hotspur ‘make contract offer to Ivan Perisic’

Tottenham Hotspur make a contract offer to Inter Milan’s out-of-contract winger Ivan Perisic ahead of a potential free transfer move this summer, according to a report.

Tottenham Hotspur have made a contract offer to Inter Milan’s out-of-contract winger Ivan Perisic ahead of a potential free transfer move this summer, according to a report.

The 33-year-old looks set to leave the San Siro after seven years at the Serie A side, with the club and player having failed to agree terms on a contract extension beyond June so far.

Simone Inzaghi’s side remain hopeful in convincing the Croatian to stay in the Italian capital, but Sky Sports are reporting that Spurs are confident in luring Perisic to the Premier League this summer.

The report outlines how a deal has been offered to the winger, with further talks expected on Monday, when Perisic will reportedly make a final decision on where his future lies ahead of the 2022-23 campaign.

It had been previously reported earlier in May that Chelsea were on the verge of completing a deal to bring the World Cup runner-up to Stamford Bridge, but Spurs have stepped up their talks in recent days.

Were Perisic to make the move to North London, it would see him reunited with Antonio Conte, who managed Inter to the Scudetto in the 2020-21 season, in which Perisic was largely utilised in a wing-back role in Conte’s three-man defence – a position that the Italian is said to be targeting this summer.
