Inter keen on signing Lindelof to replace Skriniar

Inter Milan are keen on signing Victor Lindelof as they want defensive reinforcements in the summer. Milan Skriniar will be joining Paris Saint Germain, while De Vrij has not signed a new deal, and could leave as a free agent. The Nerazzurri are also in a poor financial situation and are looking for players that can fill the void left by experienced players like De Vrij and Skriniar. Lindelof is high on their list. The Man United defender has immense experience and has the quality to thrive in Serie A.

Lindelof has gone down in the pecking order at Old Trafford under Erik Ten Hag. The former Benfica defender is now a third-choice defender at the club. So Lindelof wants to move to a club where he can be more regular, and Inter will provide him with constant game time. The 28-year old does not want to waste his prime years on the bench. Also, he can compete in all major competitions at Inter.

Inter are keen on signing Lindelof as Skriniar or De Vrij’s replacement

Lisandro Martinez and Raphael Varane have formed a formidable duo at the back for the Red Devils. Ten Hag prefers them in crucial matches, and Lindelof is being used as a backup for them. Man United are looking to cash in on some players in the summer to strengthen their squad. Both Maguire and Lindelof could be on their way. However, Inter will have to be reasonable with their demands for Lindelof, as Inter are not in a position to pay huge transfer fees.

Lindelof has experience playing as the right-back, so he can play in Skriniar’s position. The Swede defender is calm on the ball and makes timely interceptions in defense. However, Inter will have to generate funds to initiate this deal with Manchester United.
