MANCHESTER CITY have joined Tottenham and Chelsea in monitoring Inter Milan’s highly rated defender Milan Skriniar.
The Slovakia international’s contract expires at the end of the season and the 27-year-old is set to be one of the most-wanted free agents available next summer.
Milan Skriniar looks set to leave Inter Milan with his contract up at the end of the season
He been at the San Siro since 2017 and he has featured 223 times for the club.
Skriniar played an integral role in the squad that won the Serie A title back in 2020/21.
City’s priority for 2023 is reinforcing their midfield in the future but the ex-Sampdoria man remains a target.
But boss Pep Guardiola has publicly spoken about how his centre-backs have struggled to stay fit and Nathan Ake almost left the club in the summer.
City snapped up Manuel Akanji towards the end of the recent window but they are open to the idea of buying another centre-back.
Skriniar has long been on the radar of Chelsea and despite opting for Wesley Fofana they could be in the market again for a defender if Graham Potter wishes.
Spurs have also shown an interest in Skriniar too as he has worked under boss Antonio Conte at Inter.
Paris Saint-Germain wanted him too but the Italian giants rejected approaches from them in the summer.

The Ligue 1 champions reportedly saw a £43million bid turned down.
But unless Simone Inzaghi’s side can persuade Skriniar to sign a new deal, they could lose him for nothing as he will be free to discuss pre-contract agreements with non-Italian clubs from January.
Inter Milan could be set for a busy transfer window come next summer with reports suggesting they could look to loan Romelu Lukaku again.
