However, Gold added that the only issue is expected to be whether Bastoni wants to leave San Siro.

It does appear that one Tottenham target could leave Inter this summer. Reports have suggested that they also want Lautaro Martinez.

Both players would attract huge fees if they left. And it seems that Inter need one big sale. They hope to bring Romelu Lukaku back to Milan this summer.

Tottenham appear to be prioritising Bastoni, but they can switch their focus if they are unable to do a deal.

Signing Martinez would be seriously exciting. He would be an outstanding addition to Tottenham’s ranks.

It does seem Bastoni is the key target right now. And Conte is doing all he can to get him through the door.
