Inter Milan have announced they will take legal action against LaLiga president Javier Tebas.

Tebas, in reaction to Inter's move for Real Madrid midfielder Luka Modric, claimed the Nerazzurri “have no money to buy players but then offer a mountain of money", before questioning the origin of the funds.

And after the Lega Serie A hit back in a statement, Inter have announced their intention to sue Tebas for his comments.

“FC Internazionale Milano announces that it will take legal action against Mr. Javier Tebas in the face of statements made today in the Press," a brief statement on the Nerazzurri's website reads.
