Skriniar To Extend Inter Deal

Milan Skriniar says he is close to landing a new deal which will keep him at Inter Milan for the foreseeable future.

The center-half has made over 70 starts since his arrival in 2017 and has attracted the attention of other clubs, with Manchester United said to be keen.

The 24-year-old Slovakia international appears to be happy where he is and is looking to extend his stay – even though his current deal still has three-and-a-half years left to run.

“My contract renewal? We are close. I have a great relationship with the club,” said Skriniar. “A rational explanation to our better form? I don’t think there is one.

“We talked about it many times in the locker room. After the bad games, the spirit of honouring the jersey must be born in every player, that’s a fundamental aspect.”
