He’s long been linked with a switch to the Premier League but a pathway looks to be opening up for Tottenham to sign Inter Milan midfielder Marcelo Brozovic, report Goal.com.
According to Calcio Mercato, the Nerazzurri are willing to entertain offers around £17.8 million for the Croatian international who only plays a bit-part role at San Siro.
With Chelsea also still credited with an interest in the 23-year-old, the player himself has only managed three starts under Frank de Boer this term with two of those coming in the Europa League.
You couldn’t blame Tottenham fans for treating rumours surrounding Brozovic with a pinch of salt given the amount of times he’s been linked with the Premier League in the past.
If Brozovic were to engineer a transfer to either Spurs or Chelsea, he’d also have to factor how much playing time he’d receive also.
With the likes of Eric Dier and Mousa Dembele no longer automatic first choices in Mauricio Pochettino’s starting eleven given the sheer competition in central midfield, Broozvic may find it even harder to achieve regular playing time at White Hart Lane.
