However, United have cooled their interest in the player after been stunned by the price tag of the Croatian. With the Premier League set to kickstart in a week, Mourinho would love to have all his summer targets in place for the upcoming campaign after signing the likes of Romelu Lukaku, Victor Lindelof and Nemanja Matic. The Special one might have to look elsewhere with the Italian outfit already in talks with the player over a new contract.

Inter Milan sporting director, Piero Ausilio as quoted said,

“[Perisic] is an important player and we are currently discussing a new contract with him”

 

The 28-year-old was in sensational form last season, scoring 11 goals and providing 12 assists in all competitions. If he eventually signs a new contract with the Nerazurri, he will be key in their hunt for a Champions league spot in the Serie A this season.
