With the growing uncertainty of Milan Skriniar’s future with Inter, Chelsea have expressed an interest in the Slovakian ahead of the summer transfer window.
Following the departures of Andreas Christensen and Antonio Rudiger on free transfers and the uncertainty Cesar Azpilicueta’s future, who is keen on a move to Barcelona, Chelsea are targeting a number of defenders.
According to reliable Foot Mercato journalist Santi Aouna, Skriniar would be one of Tuchel key targets for defence with PSG also in the mix:
🚨Info : Milan Škriniar 🇸🇰 est bien ciblé par le #PSG au même titre que…. #Chelsea.
• Mais l'Inter Milan reçoit aussi des sollicitations de clubs anglais pour Alessandro Bastoni 🇮🇹. Si l'un des deux part, l'autre sera retenu. https://t.co/QfNmruWRsb

On Inter’s side, a sale cannot be ruled out for this player under contract until 2023.
Aouna then goes on to mention the uncertainty of Skriniar’s teammate Alessandro Bastoni, where he mentions that both won’t leave, it could or will be only one.
Definitely a situation to keep an eye on, in particular Skriniar, who only has one-year left on his contract. Inter may feel it’s the best time to cash in.
