Manchester United appear closer than ever to landing Inter Milan winger Ivan Perisic but may have to send Anthony Martial in the opposite direction.
The Nerazzurri are finalising a deal for Lazio’s Keita Balde worth around £17.7m (€20m), report Milan-based Gazzetta dello Sport.
Tuesday’s front page also suggests Martial could be included in the deal to send the Croatian international to Old Trafford.
Martial played a half in Monday night’s 2-1 friendly victory over Real Salt Lake, but has found it difficult to earn a regular run of games under Jose Mourinho.
Mourinho would not be moved on whether a move for Perisic was edging closer after the friendly at the Rio Tinto Stadium.
The Portuguese said: “No idea. No idea my friend. No idea.”
