Manchester United are in ‘advanced talks’ with Inter Milan star Ivan Perisic ahead of a summer move to Old Trafford, according to reports.
United tried to land the Croatia international last summer, however were not willing to match Inter’s €50 million asking price.
However after a terrific season in Italy and having helped guide Croatia to their first ever World Cup final, United are prepared to meet Inter’s demands – even though his asking price is reported to have significantly risen given his excellent form.
According to Euro United, Manchester United have already reopened talks with Ivan Perisic regarding a possible transfer to Old Trafford, with negotiations said to be ‘advanced’.

The report also suggests United have called on the help of ‘super agents’ Pini Zahavi and Fali Ramadani to help broker a move for the 29-year-old.
Jose Mourinho has been vocal of his praise for Perisic following his performances in Russia, further fuelling rumours he will end up at Old Trafford before the new season.
“Perisic is the kind of winger that is different to the others,” the United boss said.
“Normally you look at wingers and they are just fast and creative. But he is also physical, very physical, fantastic in the air.”
