Agent: International winger 'in talks' over Tottenham transfer

Erik Lamela wants a return to Italy with Inter Milan

TOTTENHAM winger Erik Lamela are in talks with Inter Milan, his father and agent has confirmed.

 

The Argentina international arrived at White Hart Lane from Roma two years ago, but has struggled to live up to his £30million price-tag.

And now the 23-year-old looks set to return to Serie A after Inter director of sport Piero Ausilio met with his representatives earlier today.

“We are in talks with Inter, so we’re discussing it,” Jose Lamela told La Gazzetta dello Sport.

“I can confirm the rumours are true and the interest for Erik is real. We are waiting for more developments over the next few days.

“We would like a return to Italy and are open to negotiations. It’s true that he gave his best in Italy and that is probably more suited to his characteristics.

“Erik was very happy in Serie A and had two great years with Roma. We would like a return to Serie A and we appreciate the Inter option.”
