Report: Inter Milan now convinced by £21m Chelsea and Tottenham target

Both Tottenham and Chelsea want to sign Gleison Bremer in the January transfer window, but the London duo now face competition from Italian giants, Inter Milan.

It comes as a report from Calciomercato claims that Inter were more than impressed with what they saw this week when they played Torino in Serie A. Bremer was in imperious form during the game, competing well with the likes of Edin Dzeko and Lautaro Martinez.

Reports in previous weeks have claimed both Spurs and Chelsea want Bremer. Indeed, just a week or so back, it was suggested Torino will sell. However, only if a club meets a £21m asking price.

Bremer, 24, has a contract with Torino until 2023 but there is an acceptance that he won’t sign a new one. That is forcing Torino’s hand, who will now look to sell their man.

Whoever lands Bremer will be getting a top defender into the ranks. The Brazilian has emerged as a shining light in Serie A in recent seasons. Talk of a move, then, is not surprising.

TBR’s View: Tottenham Should Pull Out All The Stops For Bremer

Chelsea and Inter could both make use of Gleison Bremer, but it is Tottenham who need him. With Cristian Romero out and little in the way of quality beyond Dier and Romero, signing a new centre-half is a must.

Antonio Conte has apparently already told Paratici to land Bremer. And in fairness, it’s easy to see why.

Bremer is a modern day centre-back who has every attribute needed. He’s young enough at 24 to keep improving, which should be a given under Conte. And finally, at £21, he looks an absolute steal.
