Italian giants Inter Milan are not giving up on their hopes of signing a West Ham United forward.

The Nerazzurri are prepared to raise their bid for Gianluca Scamacca to £21.5 million plus add-ons.

Per the Evening Standard, the offer is still some way off what West Ham want to recoup for Scamacca.

Given they paid £30.5 million for his signature last summer, the Hammers want a fee close to that sum.

The issue is that Italian clubs do not have anywhere near the financial might of the Premier League sides.

The 24-year-old is also a summer target for capital club AS Roma, with manager Jose Mourinho an admirer.
