As reported by <\/span>Sky Sport<\/em><\/span>Inter Milan also like Cristian Romero, the Argentine centre-back at Tottenham, though Spurs’ asking price remains extremely high. The London club are demanding more than \u20ac50m for the defender, who currently earns \u20ac6.5m at the club. <\/span><\/p>\n Romero, 28, captains Tottenham and was part of Argentina’s World Cup-winning squad in 2022, making him one of the most sought-after centre-backs in the Premier League.<\/span><\/p>\n For Spence too, financial demands are proving higher than what Inter would like to offer. The Nerazzurri value the left-footed full-back’s card at between \u20ac25m and \u20ac30m, but word from England suggests Tottenham are seeking a higher fee. Despite this, the Milan club remain on the player’s trail and will attempt to negotiate a move.<\/span><\/p>\n In recent weeks, Chelsea’s Trevoh Chalobah had also emerged strongly as an option for Inter’s defence, but talks with the London club have yet to take off and have currently been put on hold by the Nerazzurri. <\/span><\/p>\n The player, who had already signalled his willingness to move to Milan, is coming off a demanding season in which he played almost 4,000 minutes across all competitions, and remains under contract with Chelsea until 2028. That long-term deal is one of the reasons the Blues are not budging from their minimum asking price of \u20ac35m.<\/span><\/p>\n With three separate defensive targets in play and each carrying a significant price tag, Inter face a busy few weeks of negotiations as they look to strengthen a backline that will need reinforcing both centrally and on the right side ahead of the new season. <\/span><\/p>\n The club’s ability to move on fringe players over the coming weeks could prove decisive in determining which, if any, of the three targets they are ultimately able to land. <\/span><\/p>\n Inter’s transfer department will need to balance ambition with financial discipline as they weigh up which of the three deals offers the best value for money this summer.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" As reported by Sky SportInter Milan also like Cristian Romero, the Argentine centre-back at Tottenham,…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":17572,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pagelayer_contact_templates":[],"_pagelayer_content":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17571","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-chelsea"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17571","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=17571"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17571\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/17572"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=17571"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=17571"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/playball.com.ng\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=17571"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
