Inter wingback Ivan Perisic’s display against Udinese yesterday was further evidence that the Nerazzurri cannot afford to let him go in the summer, according to Italian media.
The Croat was given the highest scores across the board in the player ratings for the match in Italian media, as highlighted by L’Interista, with a theme being that he has made his contract extension more urgent with yet another outstanding display.
Perisic scored the vital opener in the first half of yesterday’s match, in addition to putting in an overall display that helped his team impose themselves in wide areas during the first half and then see out the result in the second.
The 33-year-old’s contract situation is still yet to be resolved, but with displays like this the club will be more motivated than ever to agree a new deal past the end of June.
All four of the Gazzetta dello Sport, the Corriere della Sera, TuttoMercatoWeb, and L’Interista felt that Perisic’s display was worthy of a 7.5 score.
