Ivan Perisic has accepted an offer to join Tottenham when his Internazionale contract expires at the end of next month. The winger is poised to sign on a two-year deal after Antonio Conte called to underline how much he wanted to work with him again.

Conte and Perisic were at Inter together in the Serie A-winning 2020-21 season and the Croatia international has turned down a two-year extension there. He was also a target for Chelsea but their pursuit was neutered by the sanctions under which the club have been working.
