Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea have each been hand a major blow in their efforts to sign Milan Skriniar this summer, with the Inter Milan defender stepping closer to joining Paris Saint-Germain. The 27-year-old has been heavily linked with a move away from the San Siro, and the Premier League duo said to be among several club interested in the defender's services.
Skriniar, who sees his contract in Italy expire next year, featured 35 times for Simone Inzaghi's side in the Serie A this season, helping the Nerazzurri retain the second-best defensive record in the league. He has become one of Europe's most coveted centre-backs in recent years, with his impressive displays, once again, rallying a wealth of interest.
According to the Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport, PSG have already submitted a €50million (£42.7m) bid for the defender, which was swiftly rejected. Chelsea and Spurs, who are each believed to be keen in challenging the French giants for the Slovakian's signature, are yet to have tabled official offers of their own.
