Inter face tough competition from the Premier League if they wish to sign Sampdoria’s Mikkel Damsgaard, according to an Italian media report today.
As per Gazzetta dello Sport’s print edition, ‘half’ of England’s top flight clubs have set their sights on signing the Denmark midfielder, who has impressed since his arrival from FC Norsdjaelland last summer.
Damsgaard, who is contracted to Samp through to the end of the 2023-24 season, drew several links to the Nerazzurri during the January transfer window.
It was also reported that Napoli, AC Milan and Juventus had an interest in signing the 20-year-old, who set up Keita Balde’s goal during the Blucerchiati’s 2-1 win over Antonio Conte’s side last month.
Damsgaard arrived at Sampdoria in a €6 million deal from FC Nordsjaelland but the report from the Milan-based publication claimed his value had since tripled.
This season Damsgaard has made 22 appearances in all competitions, in which he has scored two goals and provided four assists.
