Ivan Perisic has been through a fairly good season at his current club Internazionale in the Italian Serie A. He has made a name for himself as one of the reliable players in the midfield for the Italian giants since his arrival in Milan in 2015 from Wolfsburg.
However, the Croatian might look to part ways next season, his destination being the Premier League. Reportedly, the midfielder, who has a contract with Internazionale that runs through till 2020, is a potential target for the English giants Manchester United in the next summer transfer window and might be offloaded by his current club as a part of their plan to revamp their side for the upcoming season.
The Red Devils are looking to make a bid for the player that might cost them somewhere in excess of £36 million. The hefty price tag on the Croatian is considered to be a deserving one, with the midfielder helping his current club to win a number of matches in the recently concluded season, having scored 10 goals throughout the campaign. The midfield maestro has also been in the thick of things with eight assists and 58 chances created to his name.
Manchester United had to go through a quite difficult season, with a number of players facing injury scares. Apart from that, players like Mata, Rooney and Martial failed to impress the current manager Jose Mourinho with their respective displays of prowess in the midfield.
However, despite all the drawbacks, Manchester United have managed to come out on top of their opponent Ajax in the UEFA Europa League, beating the Dutch side 2-0 in the final to clinch the trophy for the first time in their history.
Having sealed a place in the UEFA Champions League for the next season owing to that gallant victory, Manchester United are currently looking to revamp their side for the next season with players who have vast experience of playing in European competitions and have a proven track record over the years at their disposal. Given their current search criteria, Perisic could be the perfect player who can completely fit the bill at Old Trafford next season.
The Portuguese coach, Jose Mourinho has recently said that he has already had a discussion over his preferences for the next season with the club management and now it is up to them to comply with him. Do you think United should spend in Perisic this summer?
