Premier League sides Everton and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly keen on Inter Milan defender Andrea Ranocchia, after the Italian was stripped of his captaincy.

Premier League sides Everton and Tottenham Hotspur are reportedly considering a move for Inter Milan defender Andrea Ranocchia.

The 27-year-old - who joined the Italian giants from Genoa in January 2011 - has made 161 appearances for the club, scoring nine goals.

Ranocchia has featured for just 72 minutes in Serie A this season after moving behind summer signings Jeison Murillo and Miranda in the pecking order, and the Italian was stripped of his captaincy by head coach Roberto Mancini before the start of the current season.

According to Italian news outlet Rai Sport, Everton and Tottenham will compete for the signature of Ranocchia in January.

Ranocchia has made 20 international appearances for Italy since making his debut in 2010.
