Inter are interested in signing Tottenham defender Jan Vertonghen as a replacement for Uruguayan veteran Diego Godin, who seems destined to leave the club this summer, according to a report from today’s paper edition of the Turin based newspaper Tuttosport.
The report details how the Nerazzurri aren’t fully convinced by the
34-year-old former Atletico Madrid defender, who is contracted to the
Milanese club until 2022. The player has struggled to adapt to coach
Antonio Conte’s tactical system and has often been pushed out of the
starting eleven by 20-year-old Italian Alessandro Bastoni.
The
Nerazzurri are considering signing Vertonghen as a replacement for
Godin, the report continues. The Belgian defender’s contract expires
with the North London club in the summer and could be signed on a free
transfer. Godin could make the opposite journey and head to England to
play under coach Jose Mourinho, who appreciates the Uruguayan’s
qualities and has wanted to sign him since his time in charge of
Manchester United.
