United, Arsenal given 'Icardi, Perisic boosts'

A report claims that Inter Milan are prepared to cash in on Mauro Icardi and Ivan Perisic this summer, which could prove good news for Manchester United and Arsenal.

Inter Milan are reportedly planning a mass summer exodus, putting Premier League pair Manchester United and Arsenal on high alert.

United have been looking at winger Ivan Perisic over the past few transfer windows and came close to signing the Croatia international in Jose Mourinho's final summer at the helm.

Arsenal are also believed to have made an approach for Perisic earlier this year, but they lacked the funds needed to bring him to North London.

Contract rebel striker Mauro Icardi has been touted as a target for a number of clubs, meanwhile, United being among them, and La Gazzetta dello Sport suggests that both players are now available to purchase.

Inter are also considering sacking boss Luciano Spalletti at the end of the season, it is claimed, due to what they perceive to be a disappointing campaign.

Icardi is valued at £90m by the Italian side, despite the player's high-profile contract standoff which has been played out in public over the past few months.
