Inter Milan chief executive Giuseppe Marotta has confirmed Ivan Perisic is leaving the club for a "new experience in the Premier League" as the Croatian winger closes in on a move to Tottenham Hotspur. Perisic, 33, will leave Inter when his contract expires at the end of June and was in London on Monday to undergo a medical at Tottenham. According to reports, the Croatia international will sign a two-year contract with Spurs, where he will be reunited with former Inter manager Antonio Conte. Perisic, who can operate either as a winger or at wing-back, played more than 250 games for Inter and won the Serie A title under Conte in 2021. He also scored twice in the <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/2022/05/12/ivan-perisic-double-seals-coppa-italia-win-for-inter-as-juventus-finish-season-trophyless/" target="_blank">Coppa Italia final</a> earlier this month to guide the Nerazzurri to victory over Juventus. Perisic spent the 2019/20 season on loan at Bayern Munich, where he won the Bundesliga, German Cup, and Champions League treble, and in 2018 helped Croatia finish runners-up at the World Cup in Russia. "There is regret," Marotta told reporters on Monday. "But he wanted to try a new experience in the Premier League. "We were not in a position to make better offers, simply his choice was based on a different future than the current one. Maximum respect for that and a big thank you to him as well." As Perisic leaves, Inter will hope to replace his attacking ability with Paulo Dybala, <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/2022/03/22/paulo-dybala-to-leave-juventus-at-end-of-season-after-club-decide-against-contract-renewal/" target="_blank">who is leaving Juventus</a> when his contract expires next month. Inter are favourites to land the 28-year-old Argentine forward, and are also linked with a move for former striker Romelu Lukaku, 12 months after the Belgian left for a return to Chelsea. "Dybala and Lukaku? From our side there is no anxiety, we don't have to do anything in a hasty way," Marotta said. "The hope is that Dybala can play with us." Inter finished the Serie A season as runners-up, two points behind rivals AC Milan, and were defeated in the Champions League Round of 16 <a href="https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/2022/03/08/liverpool-make-champions-league-quarter-finals-despite-inter-scare/" target="_blank">by eventual finalists Liverpool</a>.
