"Madrid and Barca want to sign Skriniar"

The summer is drawing near and the machinery in the clubs offices is working overtime. The time has come to show the exit door to those who are no good and also open the door to the new transfers. Some come and others go, the usual. This will especially be the case for Real Madrid and Barcelona.

Different names don't stop appearing and one of those also came up in the past. Milan Skriniar's name is back on the table. Especially after Mithat Halis, memeber of the company which represents the Inter defender, reminded 'AS' that Barca and Madrid are after him.

"Real Madrid want to him, as do Barcelona. Whoever can convince Inter will sign him this summer, Halis pointed out, who warned of the power of the agents in the current market: "If Real Madrid want to sign him, they can, but there are many agents who are like cannibals, who try and send players to the teams they want to."

Mino Raiola does that, according to Halis. "Mino tries to do it. He tries to confuse Skriniar, but he is a player which belongs to our company. We have a contract with him," said Halis, who also made reference to the fact that Inter paid 28 million euros and then rejected an offer by Manchester City for 55 million.

"Now his value is close to 100 million. The possible transfer is quite difficult because of the 'cannibals' efforts," he concluded. Skriniar, who could occupy Varane's place if the Frenchman leaves, is also in Man Utd's list and in Atletico Madrid's, who will almost certainly lose Godín.
