Inter Milan are jumping into the battle for AS Monaco midfield star Bernardo Silva.

The Portugal international has been one of the great revelations of the Champions League this season.

In France, it's suggested Manchester United have negotiated first refusal on Silva thanks to their close relationship with Monaco and his agent Jorge Mendes.

However, Tuttosport says Inter's ambitious Chinese owners have big plans for the summer market and Silva features high on their shopping list.

Inter are willing to offer €50 million for Silva - which would leave United having to match or better their proposal to keep him away from Milan.
