The biggest team in Europe are currently monitoring, and have been doing that for quite some time now, the performances of Inter defender Milan Skriniar. But Inter have no intentions of selling him and are actually planning a contract renewal. Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport explains: “At the moment we are only talking about inquiries, in some cases a bit more, but teams like Barcelona, Real Madrid and Manchester City all have opened a channel to Milan. Inter’s transfer management team, Walter Sabatini and Piero Ausilio, are of course talking about a “non-sellable” player and want to renew the players’ contract immediately. But it is possible that it will be difficult to stay indifferent, this because of the Financial Fair Play rules currently restricting Inter. This might lead to a sacrifice involving Skriniar, in order to influence the cash flow positively.

“A paycheck boost clause has already kicked in for the 22-year old Slovakian player, but it is inevitable that a general review of his contract will take place soon. For Inter there will be no clause for selling the player, the one and simple reason for that is that the kid is not available. Should there come a time for selling Skriniar, the three biggest clubs are ready and after Liverpool’s monster transfer of Van Dijk everything is possible when it comes to transfer sums.”
