Inter Milan coach Antonio Conte is prepared to sacrifice Milan Skriniar to land Tottenham midfielder Tanguy Ndombele.
Conte is unconvinced by Inter's midfield engine, believing they lack a ball-winner.
Tuttosport says his ideal signing would be Arturo Vidal, but with Barcelona reluctant to sell, Conte is pushing for Ndombele to arrive.
And knowing Spurs are keen on Skriniar, the Nerazzurri coach has given the green light for an exchange to occur.
Spurs are said to have already opened talks with Skriniar's camp about personal terms.
