According to La Repubblica, Milan Skriniar is one of the main targets of Maurizio Sarri. David Luiz’s contract will expire on July 2019 so the English club needs to find another world class center back and Skriniar is one of them. Chelsea joins to Manchester United in the race for the defender. Arrived from Sampdoria in July 2017, he has not sign yet a new deal with Inter so, despite the club doesn’t want to let him go, a transfer could not be impossible.

Skriniar’s price is extremely high, he is not going to leave Inter for less than 80 million euros. This is not an amount out of the world, especially in Premier League considering the Liverpool paid 85 million euros for Van Dijk last January.
Skriniar has been described as a defender who is a strong tackler who is quick to make clearances. A natural centre-back, he can also be deployed as a defensive midfielder where he also produced outstanding performances with under-21 side.
