Inter Milan are already looking at a replacement for want-away centre-back Milan Skriniar.

The Slovakian is rated as one of the top centre-backs in the world.

However, his game is not suited to playing manager Antonio Conte's favorite three at the back system.

It means Skriniar is surplus to requirements, and Tottenham are interested in signing him in January, according to FCInterNews.

Inter are reportedly willing to agree to a loan with an obligation to buy deal.

But first they want to sign a replacement and have lined-up Armando Izzo from Torino.

Antonio Conte is happy to organise a swap deal which would see Mattias Vecino move to Turin.

The signing of Izzo would free up Skriniar to join Spurs in January if they were still looking for a centre-back.
