Internazionale winger Ivan Perisic is all but set to leave the Italian giants to join Manchester United.
Reports in Italy have claimed that manager Jose Mourinho has already made contact with the player to convince him to make a move to Old Trafford.
The 28-year-old is for sale for £52million with Chelsea also interested.
Internazionale director Piero Ausilio confirmed that the two clubs have opened talks to negotiate the transfer but added that the Red Devils are yet to make an official offer.
"[United] haven't made us an official offer for Perisic but their interest is there," he told Italian TV channel Premium Sport last week.
"We want to improve Inter and this is why we do not have any sellable or un-sellable players as of now.
'We know that we already have many important players within our roster like Perisic and before we decide to sell him, we have to think about what's best for Inter."
