Inter have made progress on the Mousa Dembele front but are still searching for the right formula to land the €30 million rated Belgian as per a report from Tuttosport.
The Turin based newspaper report that Inter are exploring their options and trying to work out how to bring the price tag down.
Inter could offer Joao Mario in return or alternatively could offer young trio Yann Karamoh, Xian Emmers and Jens Odgaard to secure the 30-year-old midfielder, who is in the last year of his contract with the north London club.
There is apparent interest from clubs in the Chinese Super League which could harm Inter’s pursuit of Dembele but as things stand, Tuttosport state that the former Fulham midfielder currently has nothing concrete in hand.
Last season Dembele made a total of 39 appearances across all competitions for Spurs and is currently in Russia with the Belgian national team at the World Cup where he has so far made one appearance.
