Chelsea have reportedly lodged an inquiry for Inter Milan defensive mainstay Milan Skriniar who is one of the most wanted players this summer in the transfer market.
The 27-year-old Slovakian international central defender has emerged as a standout performer for Inter since he made the move to Italy back in 2017 and is regarded to be a top player in his position.
With Chelsea on the hunt for reinforcements at the back in light of the departures of Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger on free transfers and the uncertainty surrounding Cesar Azpilicueta’s future, Tuchel has his eye on Skriniar’s signature.
According to a report from The Daily Mail ( via The Sun), Tuchel is keen to bring in the Inter Milan star defender despite Tottenham Hotspur and Paris Saint-Germain also in the mix for the Slovakian as Inter looks to demand a sizable asking price.
Chelsea could hope to make the most of Inter Milan’s concrete interest in re-signing Belgian forward Romelu Lukaku who is tipped to call it quits at Stamford Bridge just a summer into his big-money return back to the English capital.
