Tottenham Hotspur, the lions of the English Premier League, are locked in a fierce battle with Serie A behemoths Napoli and Inter Milan over center back Škriniar. According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, Spurs are bullish on the 29-year-old Slovakian star, who is expected to be a capable replacement for Romero and van der Ven.
Reports have revealed that Tottenham Hotspur are coveting Shkriniar as a key piece in strengthening their defense. Napoli, with Buon Giorno seriously injured, are desperate to strengthen their center back position, and Shkriniar's Serie A experience is the meat and potatoes in their eyes. Meanwhile, Inter Milan are also not far behind, closely watching the movement of Skriniar, ready to make a move in the winter transfer window.
But Shkriniar is standing at a crossroads in his career. His recent exclusion from the Paris Saint-Germain squad for their clash with Lyon has certainly cast a shadow over his future. His contract is reportedly set to expire in the summer of 2028 and he may have to make a huge compromise on his salary if he wants to leave the French giants.
So far this season, Škriniar has made five appearances and four starts for Paris Saint-Germain. Despite the lack of playing time, his performances have won him the favor of several clubs. With the winter transfer window approaching, his career is set to take a crucial turn and will need to choose carefully among the many suitors.
For Paris Saint-Germain, the departure of Shkriniar will undoubtedly have an impact. However, in the arena of soccer, player turnover is a common occurrence, and Paris Saint-Germain will need to be prepared to deal with it to ensure that the strength of the team is not hit hard.
